au0rey says... My passionfruit vines are still very young but i had the same problem with my brown turkey fig trees in pots last year...the fruits are dry and tasteless.. This year there was more rain here and I water regularly...the figs were fantastic. I would link your problem to inadequate water. | About the Author melbourne 3rd May 2011 4:58pm #UserID: 0 Posts: View All 's Edible Fruit Trees |

amanda says... I second that au0rey! Give them some trace elements too Rob, and in spring: potash and manure. My fig and passionfruit vine are in the same garden bed and very happy together - I let the sprinkler run for and hour or so about 3 times a week in summer plus dripper irrigation once a week) at least. My figs get dry without water too au0rey...they are so lovely when it all goes well....agree with Jason here - a lovely and under rated fruit :) | About the Author amanda19 Gerladton.

Potty Bob 1 says... I find passion fruit are very hungry and very thirsty , give them a good hit of ferterlizer when they start flowering , and follow it up . Water them heaps , the roots of passion fruit are almost as vast as the plant ,so water around the passion fruit too. I sometimes leave the hose on them for half an hour . I have little rain flower bulbs (crocus?) planted around the area of my passion fruit , as long as they are flowering ,all is good. Results for me in the last 2 out of 10 years of learning . Now have a vine full of HEAVY tasty passion fruit. LOTS of WATER and plenty of FOOD and mulch . Pic::You can see the passion fruit trunk in the corner of the picture and how far I planted the bulbs to monitor the moisture/health .
