I am growing these this year in mid Wales for the first time. i have two
different varieties, with a good crop on each, but......

How do I know when they are ripe and ready to pick?

At the moment I have them varying from a pinkish green thought to slate
blue.

Thanks

Try tasting the darker ones.


Tried that, they are very bland, not much taste, but then never having
bothered with Blueberries before, I must confest that I dont know what
they are supposed to taste like!
