This day I harvested a whole plant of 'La Ratte' fingerling potatoes, all the decent sized beans (Romano bush) from the dog bed and a basket of blueberries from the 'Premier' bush.
The nice thing about having your own bean plants is you can pick them before they get to market size. I like the meatiness of the flat podded Romanos.
My friends want to know how long it takes for the blueberries to ripen.
The great thing about blueberries in the home garden is that they don't all ripen at once
so you can have fresh picked berries over about a month if you plant several varieties
Premier (below) is the first of mine to ripen.
I have tied a cord around a branch of the 'Ira'
( a cross between Rabbiteye and southern high bush if I remember rightly)
to photograph over time. Maybe we will learn something about ripening, who knows!
