Title: pepino melon plant
Post by: carlrmj on August 31, 2011, 18:15

Hi
I bought 3 pepino plants from jpparker ,one of them has about 5 fruits on them.
I dont know when they will be ready, the fruits are about the size of a plum at the moment.The plants are in the greenhouse and are about 2ft6 wide by 2ft high.

thanks

You need to go by smell and feel rather than size.

They should smell a bit melony and be slightly yielding to touch, not rock hard
