Even hurricane Irma can't stop the papayas from ripening. Well, the hurricane definitely blew some of the stalks to the side, probably pulling some roots out and dwarfing some of the fruits to be smaller than they would have been otherwise, but we have our first papaya ever reaching maturity!
I'm super excited about this, guys. Papayas are some of the easiest fruits to grow, if you keep an eye out for those green caterpillars that like to eat the leaves and flowers. It's almost every day that I find at least one on one of the plants.
Anyway, just a quick update on the papayas :-) hope to have more updates soon!
Thanks for stopping by, Steemians!
