he missed 3 days before
We haven’t missed a day as far as I know. We’ve had some instances of having the wrong date or a repeated date on the post but never a day without a fruit. So I’m curious what instances you’ve seen that I didn’t catch.


what happens if you miss a day of posting fruits, do you have to post 2 fruits or does this end?
Effectively one of two situations:
The thread will be restarted from a day 1 count and we’ll post more fruits.
Or secondly, the thread will just end because oh well we blew it.

July 24th, Day 434: Angled Luffa

Fruit Info: Luffa acutangula is an interesting fruit that strongly resembles the cucumber. Unlike most fruits which are harvested for food when mature, the silk gourd is harvested when young. That being said the mature fruit still has a use, the fibers can be stripped from it to create a material useful as a sponge or to weave a hat out of. (Yes you read that correct)

July 26th, Day 436: Sponge Cucumber

Fruit Info: Luffa operculata is, I believe, the third and final species of the genus Luffa. This fruit is also known by the name wild loofa which is one of the best things I’ve come across for this thread. It is heavily fibrous like it’s relatives and so the mature fruit is used as a strong fiber cleaning sponge. The fruit also at maturity pops open a little “lid” on the bottom of it that disperses it’s seeds. This fruit is wack.

Fruit Tier: S making this our only complete genus of S rank fruits so far.

July 28th, Day 438: Bryonia dioica

Fruit Info: The Red Bryony is a climbing vine indigenous to central and Southern Europe that produces a red berry. This fruit (and entire plant) is quite toxic to humans. Brushing the juice on your skin is enough to cause inflammation with a rash or ulcers. Consuming the juice in small doses causes gastrointestinal irritation, nausea, and vomiting. Consuming more of the juice can cause anxiety problems, paralysis, or even just death. Supposedly the seed of the plant is safe to consume but tbh I strongly advise against even trying.

July 31st, Day 441: Creeping Cucumber

Fruit Info:
Today’s fruit is the creeping cucumber, which is a type of cucumber prominent in the southeastern regions of the US. It can potentially become a weed, however also produces a fruit. It has small yellow flowers, and I was unable to find why it is creeping, although if I had to guess it probably is in reference to it creeping out of the ground like a weed.
