My Blueberries are starting to ripen. I planted them along the fron of
my house as a hedge. The Robin's however are trying to beat me to the
ripe berries. So I have been picking them before they are fully
ripened and letting them ripen in my house. I'm hoping that they will
taste just as good.


For some reason, birds mostly leave my blueberries alone. I live along the
coast of LA. I do find that that last bit of ripening plumps them up and
makes them much sweeter than when they are almost ripe. The variety is
Sharp. I have been picking them for about two months. The individual berries
ripen at different times so that I have to work in the hunter-gatherer mode.
