This publication outlines the history of the lemon in Hawaii, and the cultivars and varieties found in the islands. It includes cultivation, management, disease and pest, and marketing considerations.
Why Some Papaya Plants Fail to Fruit
(University of Hawaii, 2001-10) Chia, C.L.; Manshardt, Richard M.
Papaya fruits may fall from the plant when about golf-ball size due to lack of pollination of a female flower. The distinction between female and hermaphrodite papaya plants is described. With “solo” papaya cultivars, allowing three seedlings to develop in each planting site gives a 96 percent chance that selection for a single hermaphrodite plant will be possible.
A Rapid Method for On-Farm Quality Evaluation of Macadamia Nuts
(University of Hawai'i, 2005-07) Gentry, Trevor; Wall, Marisa; Nagao, Mike
Macadamia nut processors routinely sample nuts received from a grower to determine the moisture content and quality of a lot. Commonly, the price paid to the grower is based on this quality evaluation. Growers can conduct a preliminary on-farm quality evaluation of their crop using the simple, rapid drying method outlined in this publication.
What Makes a Good Avocado Cultivar Good?
(University of Hawai'i, 1999-03) Evans, Dale; Hamilton, Richard A.
This publication is about the factors considered when selecting avocado cultivars in Hawaii.
Propagation and Cultivation of ‘Ohelo
(University of Hawai'i, 2008-02) Zee, Francis; Strauss, Amy; Arakawa, Claire
This publication describes nursery and field procedures for growing out ‘ohelo seedlings and gives protocols for vegetative propagation of ‘ohelo both from cuttings and by tissue culture.
Processing Macadamia Nuts at Home
(University of Hawai'i, 2002-06) Cavaletto, Catherine G.
Processing macadamia nuts at home involves several steps following harvest: husking, drying, cracking, roasting, and salting. None of these steps is easily accomplished at home, but these instructions provide a guide to allow you to produce an acceptable product.

This publication covers all aspects of papaya production in Hawaii from site selection and preparation through harvesting. It includes brief information on weed control and diseases and insect pests. (Text in Ilocano.)
Preliminary Yields of Southern Highbush Blueberry in Waimea, Hawai‘i
(University of Hawai'i, 2006-02) Zee, Francis; Hummer, Kim; Nishijima, Wayne; Kai, Russell; Strauss, Amy; Yamasaki, Milton; Hamasaki, Randall T.
The purpose of this publication is to provide a preliminary report on a trial planting of blueberry cultivars in Waimea, Hawaii. The six southern highbush blueberry cultivars tested were Biloxi, Emerald, Jewel, Misty, Sapphire,and Sharpblue; these are complex hybrids between northern highbush blueberry, Vaccinium corymbosum , and southern Vaccinium species, such as V. darrowii. Based on this preliminary trial, Biloxi, Emerald, Sharpblue, and Sapphire grew well and produced good yields of quality berries at the Mealani Research Station. Plants of Jewel were the most vigorous and robust but the least productive during this early phase of crop development. It should be noted that this is a research trial and the methods used may not necessarily reflect recommended practices.

Optimizing Germination of Papaya Seeds
(University of Hawai'i, 2004-04) Nishina, Melvin S.; Nagao, Mike A.; Furutani, Sheldon C.
Field germination of papaya seeds can be greatly improved by soaking them before planting in an aqueous solution of potassium nitrate (KNO3). Germination percentage of both fresh and dried seeds can be increased with this method. The time to germination after the soaking treatment is reduced, and maximum germination is achieved sooner than when untreated seeds are planted.
