Need some gardening help: kiwis
Hey all,
Mr. Black-thumb of gardening here. I kill all plants. Not a gardener, nor do I care to be. But sometimes gardening duties are thrust upon me against my will...
A few years ago, my wife and I thought it would be really cool to plant some kiwi vines in our yard. Really didn't need to do much to take care of them, they just took off like weeds! Last year we got our first fruit, but not very many. Didn't get a chance to try any either.
This year we got a bumper crop. I'm up to my wazoo in kiwis (and kiwi vines -- I didn't know you had to prune the suckers a LOT each year)...
Anyhoo, here's my question...
We started to see fruit a few months ago, and about a month ago now you could say that the kiwis are pretty much the size you'd expect them to be... Pretty big, and the color is nice too. They're also really super-fuzzy. But when you feel them they are hard as a rock...
When do I harvest them?
