Inducing Longan to flower with potassium chlorate.
#14
Yeah, that may be an option.
But, our only interest is in being after at least some edible fresh fruit coming each year.
May end up trying to preserve some, probably not more than one time, though.

The worst part of this is that longans are non-climateric and tend to have a short shelf life.
They do not ripen after being harvested.
Luckily, the tree seems to ripen all its fruit at once.
And, supposedly, the Biew Khiew's shelf life can be manipulated to make it longer.
Even so, a tree-full at a time might be a bit too much for just 2 people when the tree matures and begins to produce in quantity.

M'Lady is the longan nut.
I do eat some.
But, the tree is not for me.
She will have to gorge on them, and find ways to get rid of the ones she can't eat.
Not my problem.

Was a Democrat until gun control became a knee jerk, then a Republican until the crazies took over, back to being a nonpartisan again.
This time, I can no longer participate in the primary.
