Planting a human heart fruit that is more than five years old, enough for a family to have fruit to eat every day, and can eat for several months in a row, even saving money for calcium supplementation, this is really not bragging. But many people don't know when the fruit can be picked, how to grasp the best picking time, how to eat the most fragrant, sweet and delicious fruit.
Sapodilla is known as the "king of high calcium" in fruits, and it is also one of the fruits with almost the longest ripening period and very high sugar content. As for the grasp of the picking time, after repeated practice and summary, here are three very effective and accurate identification methods.
(1) Look at the growth and hanging fruit cycle. Generally, the first year of the sapodilla from April to June is the peak flowering period, correspondingly, this time period of flowering and fruiting, to the next year from March to May can be picked, if suitable for planting in the south meets warm winter or cold winter, the picking period will be correspondingly advanced or delayed by about half a month.
(2) Look at the skin of the fruit. By the picking stage, the surface of the fruit has changed from rough to smooth, and the color has changed from brown to light brown or yellowish, often the more yellow the color, the older the fruit, the higher the sugar. (Figure 5 below)
(3) Smell the fruit. You can pick the naturally ripe carpodilla close to the tree, and there is a faint fragrance when it smells close, the stronger the aroma, the older the fruit, the higher the sugar, on the contrary, the fruit that has not reached the time will not emit aroma.
Finally, in addition to the net bag for the tree to ripen naturally, the fruit that is generally picked and hard needs to be put into a non-leaking plastic bag with one or two apples, and then the pocket is tightly placed in a relatively warm place, as long as the temperature is maintained at twenty or thirty degrees, the fruit can be eaten after two or three days when the fruit becomes soft.
