Great nut to rost and add to my "Musle" (Granola) every morning: (10:00AM = Usre: Adam A Karu August/31/2010 ) sefsfeesfse — Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.52.38.221 ( talk) 12:30, 22 January 2016 (UTC)
To be correct, entries regarding jojoba's specific use in cosmetics and toiletries should be posted on Jojoba oil or Jojoba esters instead of jojoba. Istvan 13:00, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
I remember reading somewhere that Jojoba oil isn't really an oil. Is this true? (Come to think of it, what makes something an oil, is it just something that is "oily", or does it have to do with some narrolwly defined properties or chemical structure?) Brentt 21:09, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
So is any part of the plant at all edible? 24.83.178.11 10:40, 16 May 2007 (UTC)BeeCier
Jojoba seeds in the wild are edible and quite delicious. i am the son of Tom S. Janca who began bringing jojoba to commercial interest in the early 1970's in the US and around the world. I know I shipped seed and oil packets around the world as a child. I have actually eaten quite a few Jojoba seeds during harvest and while making oil and never took ill. T. R. Janca
The head of this article should mention the related article about Jojoba_oil, but I don't know how to do that in the proper way. Anyone else? -- 95.88.31.146 ( talk) 13:21, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
I find the mixture of US and UK spelling conventions somewhat disconcerting, eg centimetres, color. Dawright12 ( talk) 18:04, 18 March 2013 (UTC)
I would like to make some changes in this article. This is part of my agriculural studies in ETH Zürich.Changes will be done in chapter "Cultivation and Uses" and "References":Yield, Production Conditions, technical utilisation and References.
I (student in agricultural sciences at the federal institute of technology zürich, switzerland) would like to make some changes of this article, in particular:
-add a section on the origin of the jojoba plant
-add a section on the composition of jojoba wax
-change the structure of the section "description" by adding two subsections: 1)vegetative characteristics and 2)generative characteristics

Jojoba#Contemporary_uses --> Jojoba oil is interesting for the industry because it is odorless and it has a viscosity which is temperature-independent, where as [ [1]] mentions; | viscosity || 48 cSt at 99 °C [1] 127 cSt at 37.8 °C [1].
