  • Continuous harvest is the best! We can't just stop eating when the plants stop fruiting, so having successive fruiting seasons in a year is really helpful. If durian fruited year-round... monoculture would be tempting.

    Do you trellis the blackberries or just let them sprawl everywhere?

  • Yeah, give saskatoons a try! You'd be surprised what's possible even in your climate.

  • In order to flower well, longan usually needs a "winter" season with min temps <12°C and/or less rain. While fruiting, hot and wet is best. At sea level in the tropics, the low temps usually don't occur, and even if the winter is dry enough for longan to flower (but not dry enough to kill it), the other half of the year usually doesn't get as hot as subtropical summers, so the fruits might not develop properly. Either you have a strange tropical breed of longan, or you are very lucky to have the right conditions where you live.

  • I don't want to ask for your exact location, but longan at sea level is... unusual. Don't take it for granted. Cherish it.

  • The developers sold out, and the new parent company wanted to add opt-out telemetry IIRC. They received a lot of backlash and apparently reduced the data collected, but they had proven that they could not be trusted, and multiple forks were made before the new version with telemetry even released. Tenacity is what came of at least two of those forks.

  • I guess rambutans can't be stopped from making too many babies! 😆

    I've never grown calamondin, so I can't say for sure, but it's possible that you really did stunt it... How much of the tree did you cut off?

    EDIT: What elevation are you growing both soursop and longan? Do you have a dry winter there?

    That is unfortunate. Are the raspberries fruiting now? How long until saskatoons?

  • Nice! I've never seen anyone cut rambutans in half like that, but you do you. Are those longans I see?

    EDIT: Citrus trees are hard to kill, so as the weather warms up, your calamondin will probably recover. It might be disfigured, but it should regain its strength with time.

  • Some do! Or at least, they give you a choice of OS at different price points. NovaCustom, Eurocom, and AVA Direct come to mind. Of course, there are also plenty of vendors that ONLY offer GNU/Linux pre-installed...
