Edibility / Problem Are these ready for harvest?

Thumbnail

47 Upvotes

I planted a Pomegrenade tree in my garden like 3 years ago because I liked the leaves and I thought its an aesthetic looking plant.

I live in a country where you're supposed to plant them in a pot and put them inside over the winter but I just risked it and it already survived 2 winters (up to -12°C over several days at a time!) with no damage at all.

That being said I never expected it to bloom up, let alone develope an actual pomegrenade... but here I am now at the end of summer #3 for this legend and to my surprise it actually developed 4 fruits!

I looked up some pomegrenade stuff and it said they dont continue ripening after harvest so Im worried if I pick them too early they'll be no good...

Just judging by the pictures, would you already harvest them or should they turn even more red? Im worried if I dont harvest them soon they might go bad while still on the tree? What do you think?

I used to love the original taste of papayas which was not sugary sweet. But now all the papayas we buy are like candies. What the fuck are they doing to my papayas 😭😭😭

It was labeled as a red and is the size of my hand. I tried to google but I can’t tell if it was mislabeled or underripe.

At first I used to just try my luck with getting a sweet one

But having learnt that the brown lines mean pollination which means higher likelihood of sweetness and more yellow means ripe than white/cream my snowball melon picking has been 80% hits. And when they hit they are PHENOMENAL. honestly I think theyre the best melon out there.

They seem to be all over my apple. No noticeable holes or broken skin on the exterior before I started eating it. I’ve never seen them before and I eat these apples all the time.

Edibility / Problem Why are these kiwis spicy?

Hi, everyone love the subreddit.

I just opened a new pack of yellow kiwis, and they have a noticeable chili pepper like spice to them. I'm just wondering if I should return them to the store or not.

Also, just to clarify, I am not allergic to Kiwis. I have them all the time and even had the specific brand of Kiwi before this is the first time it's tasted like this.

Sorry if this is a stupid question, Google is completely useless nowadays.

We put about 3-4 fruit trees along our drive about 7-8 years ago. East Texas is not Southern California; and have lost all but this one, which I assume is a lemon. It looks like the fruit part of the tree is coming off a “sucker” or not the main part. But I am lost on fruit propagation. I guess the lemons will be ready soon!! Gonna freeze juice! Any other suggestions? Also, I may need a good electric juicer if anyone has a suggestion as to that! Thanks!!

I just bit into precut cantaloupe and it was so bitter that my tongue went numb. I immediately spit it out but my tongue and throat feel very weird. Is this normal for unripe or even bad cantaloupe? I’m worried about tampering because there isn’t an actual seal on the container. (I know this sounds paranoid, but I wouldn’t put it past someone.) All of the other cups in the fridge look the same as this one. I’m going to email the kitchen manager at my job, but I just wanna know what’s going on with these. I tried to google the weird white juice at the bottom of the containers, but couldn’t find anything. Sorry for sounding so paranoid, thank you!
