This is a very big ripe jackfruit that we harvested from our backyard garden is about more than 10 kilos. The fruit is roughly oblong. The color of the ripe fruit is dull yellow. The skin is extremely rough and thick. A ripe fruit has a strong smell even if you're far from the trees you will know because you can smell it.
