a. Orchard farming meaning is the planting of trees and shrubs. You can also call orchard farming a fruit garden. The orchard contains farming of fruits and nuts for commercial purposes. Most of the orchards farming are done with a single variety of fruits or nuts.
b. The mesocarp (from Greek: meso-, "middle" + -carp, "fruit") is the fleshy middle layer of the pericarp of a fruit; it is found between the epicarp and the endocarp. It is usually the part of the fruit that is eaten.
c. In botany, blossoms are the flowers of stone fruit trees (genus Prunus) and of some other plants with a similar appearance that flower profusely for a period of time in spring. ... Blossoms provide pollen to pollinators such as bees, and initiate cross-pollination neccessary for the trees to reproduce by producing fruit.
d. Harvest when fruits are full size and the rinds are the color desired because they will not continue to ripen off the vine. Rind should be firm and glossy. Leave squash on stems for better storing and pick before fall frost. When you harvest, cut stems with a sharp knife, leaving at least an inch of stem.
