Summer is best for pruning i think

[@telasims233]

I do love the nets❤

[@lyonheart84]

Fantastic harvest mate !

[@RealLifeFruitopia]

Thank you, Brett! There's a few more bowls on the tree for next month :)

[@Hydreii]

Yup, they survive just fine in zone 7. I have two trees in zone 7b. They don't grow much and have never fruited, but they're still young

[@Sunset-kx9eb]

One of my favourite, cant stop eating them when i first knew about its existence. I love the 1/2 green and half brown ones. Its best taste for me. Well done.

[@RealLifeFruitopia]

Same, half/half Crunch!

[@Sunset-kx9eb]

@@RealLifeFruitopia not crunch it's the taste difference 😋

[@dhanyashaj]

Oh my goodness ❤ it George.

[@RealLifeFruitopia]

Snacking on them now :)

I saw a lady who had thousands of jujubes on her tree. She boiled them in a big pot for a few mins and then put them in the dehydrator. Apparently it's soft and chewy with this method.

[@RealLifeFruitopia]

We have ours in a ziplock bag in the fridge, good for 3 months, if they aren't already had.

[@Sunset-kx9eb]

Dried jujubes are to be very healthy to eat, search on it and you'll know. We use it for healthy herb soups and deserts.

[@RealLifeFruitopia]

@@Sunset-kx9eb We never knew about this fruit until 50 years of age. We eat them on their own as a snack food, with no grandma to teach us otherwise :)

[@sweetlorikeet]

My Chico is only 2 years old and it already delivered 300g of fruit!

[@RealLifeFruitopia]

300 grams or kg??

[@sweetlorikeet]

@@RealLifeFruitopiag, it's only knee high and in a pot lol

[@awesomeideas8950]

I recently bought some jujubes from the shop ; they had a bitter taste towards the core.

[@Gonzalo_M]

Nice harvest! I’m curious. What fo they taste like? It’s looks a little like a small apple.

[@RealLifeFruitopia]

Taste like apple injected with honey.

[@Gonzalo_M]

@@RealLifeFruitopia ohhh, so cool! VERY interesting!

[@telasims233]

I've never heard of those? They look like little apples inside.. I thought the nets were for the birds? We don't have fruit flys that bad.. we have deer that eat half our tree 🤣😂🤣😂

[@geriannroth449]

You can pickle them & store them in Mason jars for future use

[@RealLifeFruitopia]

[@dougs_urbanfarm]

Jujube are not tropical. They need a winter to fruit well and they dont love humid summers.

[@RealLifeFruitopia]

The Chinese jujube enjoys a diverse range of climates from temperate to tropical, whereas the Indian jujube is restricted to warmer subtropical and tropical climates. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jujube

[@ramk2443]

They are native to india too , most of india never gets cold
