Nice going!! It's hard to tell when to pick Flavor Supreme even when one has plenty. I must have picked mine over a month. They didn't really seem to change all that much. Even at the end they were pretty tart but always with plenty of sweetness to balance it out.

I couldn't get your picture to open.

Ah,

Congrats on your success! Hopefully, next year will be better.

Hi All,
Fruitnut, I am sorry that you did not get the picture. See, I forgot I was at work and realized that I don't have the same access to all media functions that I would have had I been at home so here they are! I am trying hard to send all 4 pics so please bare with me if I have to submit them as messages...

here is the second one

And another on its side hastily cut!

Sorry, here is the one hastily cut

And last but not least! In this one, I am trying to make the fruit look appetizing like Fruitnuts' pictures! LOL. Anyway, if there is an easier way to get all the pics on display at once, please let me know! Thanks everyone!

Nice looking fruit! You have every reason to be proud. Most pluots, at least around here, seem to hold on the tree very well. Most times they pick up more sweetness if you wait a bit. The anticipation makes it hard to resist though. :)

Thanks Mr. Clint, I was like a child on Xmas eve. night, just waiting for the time to pluck the fruit. I really wanted to wait until July 5th, thinking that it would be a little softer to the touch but as I was adjusting the netting on the tree, it became disconnected from the stem and fell through the netting onto the ground. That was my cue! It was really sweet but it was not at its peek. I wanted extreme sweetness but the rich fruity taste was still incredible. I also have a 4-n-1 pluot tree with FS/FK/FQ and Dapple Dandy.i lost every fruit blossom on that tree due to the weather and all. However, I spray and examine all my trees on a regular basis as need--but I can't wait until I get that perfect dream harvest! Did you harvest yours yet? Please share your pics!

Sadly, 'Flavor King' and 'Dapple Dandy' got hit pretty hard by squirrels this year. I'll get nothing from FK, my favorite piece of fruit in the world, and just a few DD. The good news is that 'Flavor Grenade' is having a banner year. :)

Just updated my post titled 'Flavor Grenade' pluot with a newer photo.

Hi ahgrower,

How are the pluots coming along in Georgia? I'm also in Georgia and would like to give them a try here. I believe a number of them are off patent now and I'm planning to try grafting/budding some if I can get some scion wood.
