皇帝ナツメ今朝の状態 Jujube Fruits This Morning

 昨日は真夏日の暑さ(練馬区の最高気温は32℃+)と青空。その高温で一気に皇帝ナツメが色づき始めました。そして夜には台風がらみの雨で涼しくなったので、寒暖の差が出て実の成熟に適した天気です。

It was a return of a summer day yesterday with the max. temperature reaching 32℃, and the sky remained free of clouds all day.  Thanks to the head and sun light, all but one of the jujube fruits started to go brown.  Then at night, we had a typhoon-related rain lasting up to this morning, which brought a cool air.  Just like autumn leaves, this difference in heat and cool air is said to be conducive to jujube ripening.


5個固まっている枝の実は色づき始めたばかりで、陽光面だけ赤い。
These 5 fruits have just started to go brown, and only on the sunny side.

2個の枝の右側の実はまだ着色部分が無く、最も遅れをとっている。
Of these 2 fruits, the one on the right has no brown spots as yet.

3個の枝の右側の実は、全体が赤くなるまであと一息。今週末までには裏側も色づくかも。
Of these 3 fruits, the one on the right is almost all brown - the back of the fruit probably becoming brown by this weekend.
