    From what I’ve read, it’s like 2 years to grow and then it’s another 6 or more months to actually grow a full fruit. Thing is, it’ll lay dormant when it gets cooler conditions and takes a while of proper warm conditions to finally flower. Or something along those lines.

      Ya that’s what i’ve heard too, but 2 years is the minimum according to the farmer, and we lived in tropical country. Sometime natural phenomenon like el nino or la nina can knock the grow time off. Idk i’ll just plant it and forget

        You can try to force it to flower with an apple too. The apple releases some compound when it decays that stimulates flowering apparently. Sorry I’m too lazy to look up the specifics.
