Nectarine Fruit

3 responses

amanda says... Hello Kay - I had a similar problem this year with mine (they were half ripe) and yet the peaches 3m away sublime!. They had plenty of sun etc. I reckon I just had too many fruit on the poor thing and maybe not enuf' food in the soil. Strange problem tho' as mine had all the sun n water they needed. Next season I will be brave and thin the fruit. I also plan on giving it liquid nitrogen feeds early spring.	About the Author amanda19 Geraldton.

Kay starts with ... I have a nectarine tree, which has blossomed, and formed a good crop of fruit, this year and last, but the fruit forms, grows to about the size of a golf ball, but no bigger, and does not ripen. Last year was the first year it had fruit. Can anybody help please Kay	About the Author Kay1 Hunter Valley 2nd January 2010 7:42pm #UserID: 3179 Posts: 2 View All Kay1's Edible Fruit Trees

Kay says... Hi amanda Thank you for your response. Last year I put it down to fact that it was the first year it had produced any fruit. I covered the tree with bird netting, and then the fruit just stops growing. I will try again next year, although it is very disappointing. I was looking forward to a fruit or two.

Cal says... Same problem. Lovely crop, not ripening on a young tree. I'm currently heavy-watering to see if I can bring on some growth. Not hopeful. Plums not 2 yards away magnificent.
