I have been watching my strawberries very closely because many of them are red but are just not quite ready to be harvested. I did find a few that were ready to be picked and that is what I did earlier in the week. This has been about the average time that I would normally pick these berries. In terms of timing they have began ripening as they have for the past several years.
A good size and were very tasty after I took a couple to see if they were sweet enough and juicy enough to be harvested.
I am also getting blueberries, but they are no where close to being harvested. They take a much longer time to ripen as compared to strawberries. July is usually when I start picking them on average. Sometimes at the end of June I may pick the first of the season.
Since we are discussing fruit I thought it would be wise to notice a tomato is starting to grow on one of my plants. It is probably a Roma as it has an oval shape which is the only shape that Romas will take. It probably isn't a cherry or a steakhouse tomato so I am going with Roma. In a couple days when it gets bigger I should be able to determine what exactly it is. Stay tuned to find out what type of tomato is growing in my garden.
