I've allowed these branches for a year to grow long enough for it to have pods. But our relatives who were supposed to visit this month cancelled it and moved the date of their visit.
So, Today I've been told to harvest the pods, that includes cutting the branch. I would probably have to wait another year to grow again.
Unless mom cooks dish on it, Pods are not my favorite part of moringa / mallunggay.

That is a good crop I see. We had a tree that yielded plenty and we used to sell them.

@Letranknight2015 That tree had to be uprooted as its roots got into our septic tank. We are now planning on another one

Why would I hate them postponing? I rather not have them come at all @popciclecold because their way too needy. I was simply preparing myself for them to come.

Have you tried harvesting baby pods? I swear they are more delicious than adult pods because there is no pulp, it tasted like asparagus

Hello @CaptAlbertWhisker how little baby pods are supposed to be because I have harvested small and fully grown pods.

@Letranknight2015 yes, even without any meat added. i like it more with soup although sometimes it can be mixed with eggplants.
