I'm trying to talk the wife into leaving next year about Dec. 15th for Arizona - We've got free use of a Condo. - But she's got this Christmas snow thing and this will be a hard sell.
I haven't checked the data, but think it's been a pretty warm winter. I can't remember having a pineapple fruit this early, and our tomato plants are going crazy.Martha said:If January is spring, what is winter?
It'll take 3-4 months, depending on how much fertilizer & water is applied. It'll be about half the size of the store-bought but this is our biggest plant so it may be more impressive. I think this one is descended from a Costco-supplied Maui Gold. My FIL keeps sprouting them and they're cheap/easy ground cover.Outtahere said:How long does it take to grow to an edible fruit?

Uh-oh, you're pushing the limits of my agricultural vocabulary.Sheryl said:Does the plant die after fruiting, or is it perennial?
(Cute Fuzzy Bunny) said:Nice living in farm country. At least once a week someone leaves me a giant sack of peaches, tomatoes or nuts. Two years ago I just happened to not use the front door for almost a week. Then I found the week old 20lb sack of peaches someone left out there the week prior, that had sat in the 100+ degree heat all that time. I check the door every day now...

I know there must be a joke in there somewhere... :
