Comments:
2023 Unproductive year for this one, possibly due to heat and smoke level in the air. Only 1.5kg (3 lb 4 oz) per plant on average. About 145g average fruit. Also grew in a 5 gal pot, and it was my first year not growing in-ground so could have been another contributing factor to lower productivity. 2015 Not quite as productive this year as previous years, might have been overcrowded in the garden. Good solid producer, even in the heat though. Great flavour. Not much leaf coverage. Some cracking, but not much. 4.25lbs per plant. 2009 Fruit 10-14oz each. Some splitting when fruit wasn't evenly watered enough due to the water restrictions in my area. Brownish/blackish fruit with green shoulders. Absolutely fantastic flavour, one of my favourite blacks of all time.
