Wow these things are big! Some of them are just starting to color up, got a double (triple?) that I would guess is over 2 pounds. Anyone know how to tell when they're ready?

I pick our BTDs when the shoulders just start to soften. Hope that makes sense.

Yesterday I posted pics of my Berkeley Tie Dye tomatoes. I asked the question how to tell when they're ready. Angie (AJSears) was kind enough to tell me to check the shoulders for softness. My biggest BTD, a double, felt just right so I decided to wait until morning to pick it. This morning I was going to take it down to the post office to weigh it before indulging.
He who hesitates is lost. As I approached the plant, clippers in hand, I saw the tailless squirrel that hangs out here, seemingly to just drive my dogs insane, bolt from the plant and go under the fence. Not a good sight. ![]() Sure enough. ![]() I'll post pics of it cut up later. ![]()
