Persimmon
Store astringents in a cool place (eg esky with air gap) and ripen by either a) Place some fruit in another sealed esky with some apples - they ripen pretty quickly. b) even quicker is to add some alcohol (spirits). A splash will do. What the Japanese do.

Persimmon
Grown at the bottom of the chook run, a few well placed rocks to protect the roots, any dropped fruit gets cleaned up so less fruit fly problems, protects the girls from strong westerly winds and shades them in summer.
