Researchers are working on a seedless muscadine. They have already crossed grapes with Muscadines with good result so whats genetically around the corner could be amazing!

Concords are very dark purple, so I'm guessing Emily picked those bunches to save them from bird bite. Don't know if the green ones will turn color and ripen once cut. I'll be finding out next year for sure.

Don't see why Concord won't grow for you in No Fla if they are growing the way they are for me in PSL. A good spray for fungal infections and most other diseases is Organocide Plant Doctor. Excellent for mangos, avocados, veggies, grapes and all trees in hot humid climes.

Emily
Thanks for the pic of the grapes. It instantly brought me back to my childhood
.... we would jump ol man mitchells fence and eat as many grapes as we could
while he was not looking . Occasionally we would eat a green one . Pucker -Pucker-Pucker!! Happy Gardening!!

I make an excellent Muscadine wine that is very sweet. It uses natural, wild yeast to brew muscadines then a nice vodka addition to boost alcohol and keep it sweet and help kill that natural yeast. I hate store bought Muscadine wine but love the sweet flavor of homemade. Alls you need is like crock pot cermaic liner , muslin to strain with, sugar and vodka and jars like qt canning jars.

Sounds real good Randy. Took me a while, but I love backyard grown Muskies -- the fruit -- not the fish.

Dan thanks for the links.

I am familiar with Southern Home which I'm hopefully picking up two weeks from now at Just Fruits and Exotics. Conquistador is another one I'm looking at. I am encouraged that I may be able to grow Concord.

Randy one of my goals is to produce a wine that I would enjoy. My favorite affordable wine is Berringer White Zinfandel. I'm not a big dry wine drinker and prefer the sweeter fruity wines. I'd be interested in your methods if could share.

Started picking Muscadines to make wonderful grape jelly today. This years crop about 3 weeks ahead of last years. Will wait to pick for wine.

Any pics?

momoese · 08-27-2012, 02:42 PM

The last of my carrots and the first of my mangos! Oh and the summer squash behind the mango, some oregano, basil, a bunch of San Marzano tomatoes, a Pineapple tomato, and some stawberries.

RandyGHO · 08-27-2012, 03:34 PM

First Jonagold apple from a tree I got from New York about three years ago. I have about twenty apple trees now.

Some Pindo fruit

I have not had a chance to harvest much yet; my meyers lemon is almost ripe but I did have a handful of yellow strawberries yesterday - grew these from seed this spring and they are wonderfully delicious!; they are smaller and have a slight different taste than the red strawberries, almost like some other fruit has been added but I have not been able to figure out wha.
Right now my 3 year old sapodilla is almost ready to bud out for the first time - can't wait! - so I will keep you updated on its progress. And my julie mango is now almost 6" tall.

Darkman · 09-18-2012, 03:54 PM

I picked an Xie Shan satsuma that was about 35% orange. I iwll eat it tonight and report.

I also picked the fattest Orinoco I have every seen. It was very good and ripe. Still think they have a blackberry flavor with a slight Lemon finish. Excellent.

robguz24 · 10-01-2012, 04:20 PM

My very first mamey sapote. 4 years after planting, 14 months after first noticing the small fruit developing.
