PARE : PART 4

Pare plant will set the fruit so fast.

Three  days after pollination, the petal will be withered and then fallen.

The fruit will grow so fast, so we can harvest the fruit about 10 - 14 days after pollination.

Pare fruit is usually harvested when it has on medium maturity or nearly ripen.

When the skin is still greenish.

Actually, there are so many variety with different color of the skin.
The color tone is from deep green until creamy.

The shape and size is so various, depend on the variety.
Look a few of my collections...

The length is about 4-60 cm, and the diameter is about 3-6 cm.

And the texture of the skin also so various, depend on the variety.

To make the fruit long and straight, farmer usually use rope and give a load on the end of the fruit.
It's the same way with the oyong that we have talked last month.
I have never done that.
I only do wrapping to keep the fruit from the fruit flies attack.
Next, we will talk about the seed.
