Jackfruit (forum)

Juul starts with ...
I have an area of no frost, South-East and shady/cool side of mountain, lots of sun, and humid, even in summer. Wanted to know what DIFFERENCE is between the 'seedling' and the 'seedling crisp' variety of Jackfruit as there are only two of these available right now. Is there any taste difference, fruiting, or growing speed? I heard that if you draw the sap, the Jackfruit will fruit better, is this true?

The seed used for the Crisp Seedling comes from the crisp variety. This variety is very famous and known for being incredibly large.

The seed used for the plain jackfruit seedling comes from a general jackfruit tree.

Because they are both seedlings they will be genetically unique. Here is more information on grafted vs seedling.

In terms of time to fruit because they are both seedling they need to mature before they fruit unlike a grafted variety like the tweek crisp which will fruit a few years earlier. But between the crisp & general seedling they will be similar times to fruit.
