Fos starts with ... Help Ideas please ? I have a Nagami Cumquat. had for almost 3 1/3 years - no flowers or fruit. It is healthy but has not grown much, fertilized & water regularly & full sun. Bought as a grafted advanced tree we had it in the ground first then trans planted to a pot last year no problem. We hoped to shock into flower but still nothing ? | About the Author Fos 26th July 2012 1:51pm #UserID: 5643 Posts: 6 View All Fos's Edible Fruit Trees |

Fos says... Thanks Mary, yippee... must have been exciting to see a fruit on yours. That's encouraging,I will persevere. My husband thinks it's a dud but I think it will come good. The rest of my citrus are flowering & fruiting abundantly too. - some much younger than the cumquat-(at a guess it's 7yrs old) So I am baffled not even a flower. | About the Author Fos 27th July 2012 8:00am #UserID: 5643 Posts: 6 View All Fos's Edible Fruit Trees |

Julie says... What about the seeds though? If they are left whole they will be full of them. Don't want to give people fruit where they have to spit out seeds. Don't mind myself. Any ideas people? If I cut them to remove the seeds they will probably lose a lot of juice in cooking. Won't they? Never done it. | About the Author Julie Roleystone WA 31st July 2012 8:24pm #UserID: 154 Posts: 1842 View All Julie's Edible Fruit Trees |

MaryT says... Fingers crossed, Julie. Re cumquat; if you are speaking of candied fruit, it's quite ok to cut them and take out the seeds. You can return the juice to the syrup; shouldn't matter. They're meant to take up the syrup to be 'candied'. Here's a simple recipe: http://www.simplyrecipes.com/recipes/candied_kumquats/ | About the Author MaryT Sydney 15th December 2012 10:30pm #UserID: 5412 Posts: 2066 View All MaryT's Edible Fruit Trees |
