Honeyberry Haskap

[@farmfoodfeast]

Do you grow or have you tried honeyberries/haskaps? What do you think of them?

I live in Saskatoon and have 5 plants in my front yard!

I have a Blizzard and need another variety but ones I tried were quite sour but I like that.

Дома только русской селекции, вкусная... В этом году посадил 3 сорта серии бореал и куст Авроры. Успехов вам!

I started about 5 years ago. I have different varieties in my font yard. I find the sweetness definitely varies with each variety. BTW, I have a second row of honey bee bushes, with the recommended pollinators being every 4th bush in my back yard. Compared to the others, they are very poor producers.

Good video! They were definitely picked early. When the berries are ripe they are blue right through with no green in the middle. I have a few hundred plants and they are just starting to reach a point where I can probably stock another freezer full of them. They are exceptionally good for you and fantastic in smoothies. One of the biggest mistakes people make is buying only one kind. As you stated in the video...they need another pollinator to produce a good crop. I have Aurora and berry blue that are pollinators for Tundra and Borealis. Interestingly enough this year; our boreal beast and beauty are flowering at the same time as all the other plants. Should be a busy picking season! Going to make a crop! Enjoy your day! Al

What he said. They were picked too early. And these are supposed to be a tart berry.

Thanks for sharing. Looks like B. Beauty and Blizzard didn't catch up on sugar content. Just planted some lates varieties this fall. Can't wait to try if win the birds pressure battle.

Aww you garden with your cat to lol

[@zooplanton]

Bigger trees tend to bear sweeter fruits. Dwarf treees tend to bear smaller fruits. So blueberry and honeyberry bushes should be bred into big tall trees

[@zooplanton]

@@paul.1337 You need to compare similar fruits. Olive trees are also enormous.

Get, boreal beauty, beast and blizzard. Plant beast in the middle and other two on the sides. Also plant them by the wall. Then they'll taste very good and will produce a lot. Enjoy ;)

Thank you for info. G.B.Y. 🤝 🎩

They get sweet late in the season when they are softer.

here's my tip. WAIT. gotta wait a long time AFTER they turn blue. wait. more you wait better it is. Dont start eating when they turn blue. again, wait for 4 weeks or more after they turn blue, especially beast blizzard and beauty. Open it up and you should see red. If they dont stain, you picked up at the wrong time. Enjoy!

also, thats not how you test brix. brix is different at each layer of the berry, inside its pretty low and very high near the skin. So it'll not give you the right number. You gotta mix the berry , or measure it from the inside ( center of the berry ) to get proper feeling. The rating will be low. which is normall since it didnt ripen from the insides. Just gotta wait wait and wait . Best berry is the one that stays on the bush for a longer time. invest more in protection than the berries. You must net them and net them higher than the plants so birds dont poke. If you dont, u will start eating raw berries and will not taste good and the birds will destroy the bush.

The real question is how sour are they?
