Default Re: What did you harvest today (other plants)?

Emily - Let that pineapple get good and yellow on the kitchen counter. I had a few small ones this year cause I let them fruit in pots. They were still very good. Way better than store bought. When it smells ripe cut it up and enjoy!

BTW -- didn't you hear that we can't grow Concord grapes in south Fla?

All the experts say so - will be big disease magnets. Well, I miss my Concords that I grew up with up north so I put in 2 vines this year anyway. Got them from Isons. The seeded one is up to the top wire already and the 2 cordons I trained are 3 and 6 ft long. The other is unseeded. I put the bare root vines in the ground only 3 months ago -- amazing. Will be prepared to spray though when/if disease shows up.
