Do you sell the tree? Or the seeds or small trees that we can grow on our own?

I heard there are 2 types of pomelo in ipoh , one is sour which is red in color.
How to choose sweet color but need to be watery and juicy.Not those dry until you can't eat or sollow.

Duration eat for choosing
-Today
-Next 2 week

How to choose and make sure they are ripe for eat after 2 weeks ? Some may say heavy weight is better but how to weight while buying ?
About smell , it's so hard to smell since the skin is tick, and where to sniff ? top ?
Any different on tick and thin skin ? smooth peels and etc ?

Newbie here because it's almost as expensive and even more expensive than durian D , 1 pomelo cost more than RM 30.If choose wrongly it's gone.Not like you can return or confirm sweet if wanted to eat 2 weeks later or today.

Thanks smile.gif

Answer to how to choose Pomelos?
Pomelos- 2 varieties; (1) red/ pink flesh= sweet & sour; (2) yellow flesh = sweet variety;
Depends on which one you prefer.
Sweet & sour variety has a ROUGHER surface.
Sweet variety has a SMOOTHER surface.
If you want to buy ripe pomelos, get those that are mostly yellow in colour.
An old pomelo tree gives fruits that are juicer/ sweeter and the skin of the pomelos are thinner too.
DON'T tap on pomelos as it will cause the pomelo oils fr the zest to flow back into the fruit's flesh, causing the fruit to taste a bit BITTER.

Serious question, do they still parade sexy / pretty girls at Ipoh / Tambun pomelo stalls ? Last time many girls welcoming customers because want to attract business

Long time didn't go to Ipoh balik kampung so I'm wondering 😅
