Rotten jack fruits

This year we were not able to harvest jack fruits. The tree that is loaded is dropping them and once they are down they rot also due to heavy rain. The garden was smelling with these rotten jack fruits but yesterday I got the gardener to pick them all and dump them in the compost pit and that was then covered with loads of dry leaves. The garden does not smell now. Sad howevere this season the jack fruits could not be enjoyed

It is indeed sad that this years Jackfruits could not be used. I do hope that next year is better And your garden will not smell.

@allknowing Ask your gardener. He might have lunch up the free and be back late but if he works late it's ok

That is sad when the fruit is wasted and can not be enjoyed.

Sad to have to throw all those fruits, but at least the garden does not smell anymore.

my neighbor who has jackfruit put it on a sack while still on the tree. I am not sure why though. I hope to see my neighbor so I can ask
