        Frequently Asked Questions About Pumpkins

        • Do Pumpkins Have A Ready Market?

        Pumpkins have a vast market as they are versatile. Apart from being used as a superfood, they are also sold for ornamental purposes. There is a growing demand for pumpkins and in 2021 countries posted millions of dollars in exports. The preference for processed foods that are readily packaged is a driver for greater demand for this fruit. Pumpkins are a lucrative opportunity for those who are looking for business ventures.

        • How Do You Know Pumpkin That Is Of High Quality?

        Can you tell when a pumpkin is of great quality? Proper harvesting and storage of pumpkins are crucial in ensuring quality as harvesting them too early gives a bland quality. On the other hand, poorly storing pumpkins after harvesting makes them grow mould and rot.

        Pumpkins of poor quality are unmarketable so buy pumpkins in bulk only from reliable suppliers to enjoy the best quality. 

        • When Should Pumpkins Be Harvested?

        Pumpkins are best harvested during the dry season. They are ready to be picked with a uniform solid hue and have a hard rind. Picking pumpkins with a soft rind shortens their shelf life which is a waste. Additionally, harvesting should not be based on the size of pumpkins but on maturity. At FrutPlanet, we carefully select mature pumpkins, as quality is our core value!

        • Fresh Broccoli Sold By: FrutPlanet

          FrutPlanet is a leading exporter and supplier of fresh broccoli and other fruits and vegetables. You can request a quote and let us engage you in your order.

          Colour: The best fresh broccoli for export should be green before the flower patch. The broccoli florets have a size of a matchstick and open up to small yellow flowers. Apart from green broccoli, there is also purple broccoli. At FrutPlanet, we source your preferred variety of broccoli right before it flowers.

          Stems and Stalks: Fresh broccoli stems and stalks are edible and delicious. However, they’re only perfect when firm. If they over-mature, they become woody and may be terrible. FrutPlanet handpicks all the fresh broccoli to feel the texture of each product. We have a team of experts who scrutinise the harvest and eliminate produce whose stems and stalks aren’t edible.

          Head Size: The size of fresh broccoli varies depending on the number of broccoli florets on the head. The size enlarges as the flowering stage nears. The average diameter of a fresh broccoli head is 4 to 6 inches when the broccoli is mature and ready for flowering. When you request a quote from FrutPlanet exporters, we source your specifications on sizes. We can get them all, whether you want large or medium-sized fresh broccoli!

          Flowering: Fresh broccoli with yellow flowers is often past the edible stage. Flowers signify that the flowers have opened up, and the stalk could be woody. Additionally, yellowing is a sign of older broccoli, although sometimes it could be natural. At FrutPlanet, we individually evaluate every product and eliminate broccoli florets before exporting.
