Can't remember as it's been there for years. Every other year we've had normal chokos, this is the first year they have been a funny shape & also we are normally picking them this time of the year & so far we havnt had any. There's lots of babies on there but I don't know as some of the leaves are starting to go yellow!!

when u peel chokos, they leave a gluey green mucus on ur hands that is hard to remove. my chef father taught me this tip---- before peeling, cut the top and bottom off (much like you would cut the top off a carrot) to expose the flesh beneath, and soak in warm water for a few minutes, u can see that stuff come out from the cut. then u can peel in peace

Wear gloves before you peel the skin - that will solve the problem and no wasting of the flesh! :)

My choko vine is going crazy and it has flowers but no fruit when should I be expecting the fruit to come on?

It is the season for the fruits. Mine has a lot of fruits and still more to come. May be your flowers need an attraction of bees or butterflies

Planted chokos from fruits from veges shops. Healthy growth but no fruit set over the last 3 seasons. Fertilizer (complete formulation for fruit and veg) at early shoots and pre-flowering. Planted in full sun position. Can someone please help, thanks.

Just picked the first chokos from my vine and they are white! Is it a different variety? Isn't it supposed to be green? I bought the plant from local farmers markets.

Hi I would be interested in growing a white choko, been looking for them for ages, you wouldn't be able to send one through the mail, I will pay for freight, just email me if you can. Thanks
