The berry yields 6,000 to 8,000 pounds per acre on east Texas sands, with large fruit often containing 35 berries per pint. Dr. Edmond N. O Rourke Jr. notes commercial trials in Louisiana, canning and preserves at least, and home gardeners may harvest about a gallon per plant. Planting, soil, and fertilizer guidelines are outlined for winter establishment and first crop timing in late spring of the second year, with notes on disease resistance and minimal spraying under normal conditions.
