Crops and picking times
“In most cases, our bell peppers begin as green or light yellow in color.”
“Peppers will not continue to ripen or change color after they have been harvested.”
“Overview: A winter squash with a sweet, nutty flavor, available in the fall.”
“Our tomatoes are typically ready at the end of July or early August.”
“They're also called ground cherries because once they ripen, they change from green to brown, fall off the plant, and you harvest them by picking them up off of the ground.”
“Husk cherries will last for weeks and will continue to ripen; the husk will turn brown and dry out while the cherry will turn a deeper golden yellow.”
