Fertilising your feijoa I visited someone last week who has increased the size of the fruit, the yield and the flavour of her feijoas over the past few years by fertilising with glacial rock dust and setting up a small worm farm underneath the bushes/trees.The liquid leach from the worm farm goes directly into the soil around feijoas.I know where I'm putting the worm farm I plan to establish next spring.

Bumping up as we have hundreds of feijoas to use up and am keen to try some of these yummy sounding recipes.

Feijoas - skinned. Hi you folk that peel and scoop out feijoas.Pour boiling water on them, and let them stand for a couple of minutes and the skin peels off easily - but not as easily as tomatoes.

I sometimes peel with the potato peeler, too.

I'll have to buy another bag as I've eaten too many & haven't enough to make a cake.

to bottle: cut in half + scoop out, bring to boil in water (starting from cold water), then bottle (may not be quite cooked but will finish from heat in the water)-no need for sugar.

Hi Owl. I think the season would be finished now, unless upper South Island fruit is still available. I just checked on Trademe for you as I've seen them for sale on here. hope you find some.
