Passion Fruit Farming: Growing Passion Fruit with Lemon Trees

Tips, Tricks

1. O volume de polpa é reduzido, para uma passiflora PE, isto mostra que você tem problemas com irrigação e nutrição basicamente. pode corrigir a adubação e irrigação facilmente e com isto o volume de polpa vai aumentar pelo menos 70%, do que você tem atualmente, e se for adequado vai melhorar ainda mais. e também corrigindo este problema deve ter maior carga de flores e frutos, assim cada novo intervalo de nó do ramo de passiflora vai ter uma for e consequentemente um fruto, correndo tudo bem, o que não deve ser o caso. em geral passifloras cultivadas, quando adequadamente e condições ambientais favoráveis, tem grande quantidade de flores e frutos. A passiflora testada para um ambiente, deve levar em consideração, a genética, irrigação, adubação, solo, sistema de cultivo, sanidade, foto período e por ultimo a temperatura. muitas passifloras mesmo em temperaturas inferior a 15C podem florescer e frutificar até zero graus centigrados sem problemas, a queda de flor e fruto não se deve exclusivamente a fator temperatura. outros fatores contribuem negativamente neste caso. quanto ao teor de grau brix, e acidez da polpa pode ser melhorada com praticas de cultivo em muitos acessos, se a irrigação for excessiva e solo inadequado em geral a polpa fica "aguada", neste caso reduza o volume de polpa. as flores podem abrir em tempo diferente dependendo do foto periodo basicamente, e depois se a temperatura e fatores assim, passifloras são em geral influenciadas pelo foto período, se for dia nublado as flores podem não abrir e podem abrir em horários diferentes, e mesmo a redução de flores e consequentemente de frutos. isto também pode ser corrigido, na maioria dos casos.
2. some species have medicinal properties: soothing, relaxing muscles, combat stress, control some types of diabetes, prevents some cancers, in particular digestive system, a kind of passion fruit can reduce by 74% the chances of heart attack, lowers = fat in veins and arteries, and also the rapid recovery after cardiac surgery (fewer days in the hospital) They leave the hospital in less days. triglycerides controls, and also remove one species can be used to reduce weight by an average of 3 kg per month, physical activity and healthy aliemntação collaborate in the SPA in Brazil men can lose 20 kg in 30 days and 20 kg women, with accompanying nutritionists and doctors. is used, and healthy aliemntos, therapies, such passion fruit. some species can control, colvulsion and neurdegenertivas diseases, and this is my focus of study.
   some species of passion fruit are seasonal, but there are mechanisms That We can use for production to all year long. We can induce flowering in many ways, we can induce germination in 24 hours or 8 hours in passion fruit seeds. We can produce organic seedlings, and they can go to the field with flower and fruit, within 30 days. I am an engineer, passion fruit specialist and I try work in a passion fruit farm, in the United States, I have experience in plant biotechnology and molecular biology. with production of dragon fruit seedlings, leads 72 hs, of the opening of the fruit to transplant the seedling produced, we can modify, shape, aroma, flavor, color pulp, juice volume
   , pulp size of the fruit of live organic in passion fruit. I study medicinal passion. If any producer in the United States are interested, please contact to work, I can help, with passion fruit and tropical fruit. I develop methodologies and protocols for seedling production and production of organic fruit. I have Brazilian and European passport. for your attention. Thank you.
3. Anyone out there , are passion fruites seasonal?
4. I trimmed my tall skinny oak tree down to 8' for the passion fruit plant to climb on hopefully the oak tree wont die from that :)
5. How cool to use the old lemon trees as a trellis. Very innovative.
6. VERY COOL! wHAT PASSIONFRUIT IS THAT? so full! i wonder whether its allowed to grow in australia? I guess being so long and productive a vine it'd need heaps of fert, yes? beaut!
7. is the pulp white or clear if it is then you have passiflora incarnarta or green passion fruit otherwise if not edible then your passion fruit is unripe because i have p.edulis p.maliformis and p.incarnata
8. Continued, for Marisol: "From observation, if the snails do too much damage to the vine, it does look like the vine might be dying and may turn yellow. I think this might be due to the vine's inability to photosythysize which immediately slows growth. I usually watch for new growth once eliminating the source of the damage and if new leaves do not appear on the end of the major stem, it likely will take much longer to get the vine going and might be more prudent to replace the vine."
9. Hi Marisol, Farmer John Koman of White Dove Passion Fruit Farm says: "I cannot address the moth on passion fruit vine issue per se, but I will tell you that our own nemisis - when vines are newly planted - are snails..."
10. Passion fruit farmer John Koman of White Dove says that it "depends on the variety. If it's a purple passion fruit, wait until it turns purple. If you have yellow passion fruit, wait until they turn yellow. That would be the earliest to pick. They will 'color up' further once they're off the vine, if you wait until they start to turn to pick." Wait until they get wrinkly to eat passion fruit.
11. I have a passion fruit vine. It is full of fruit. How do you know when the fruit is ripe and ready to eat?Thanks
12. I love passion fruits but I though it had green skin not purple?
13. @HairdoChicken Hello, thanks for writing. Farmer John Koman says: some parts of the plant are hallucenogenic and I am not sure if it is the leaves or the flowers or both. We do not recommend either to be eaten - if you are looking for something really special, try pineapple guava petals - sugary like nectar and very pleasant - a great addition to a salad in small portions (otherwise you would not get fruit unless the flower was already pollinated and then how would you know!) Enjoy! 
14. Great video. I didn't know we grew passion fruit in the United States for commercial use. I have a few vines that I started from seed but our winter here in Texas will probably kill them.
15. Passion Fruit is a bneauthifull plant
