thats a cool timeline pic of coconut age , i never knew when a little tree started growing .

[Mister Obvious]

It takes over a year, for a coconut to become ready.

Over. A. Year.

[Mister Obvious]

It takes well over a year.

I didn't know any of that. That's interesting.

I'm still amazed that fruit so big and dense can grow from just what the tree gets from the ground. That's incredible.

Pretty cool! I had no idea either. 7 months of usable fruit. 30 per year. Gives you an idea the remote tropical island to look for, to get stranded on.
