When is the potato berry ready for harvest ?

Tomaat · June 9, 2008

Hello all,

I have been hand pollinating my salad blue and Highland Burgundy red potatoes. The salad blue has not produce a single berry but the Highland Burgundy Red has produced some 10 plus berries. The biggest berries are around 1.4 cm across and the smallest are around 0.5cm across.
I am planning to use it as the true potato seeds.
When should I harvest them ?
I can't tell if they are ripe or not

, please help.

Many thanks in advance.
