How to Tell When Pawpaws Are Ripe
The largest native fruit to North America, the Pawaaw has a custard-like texture and a sweet, tropical flavor. But, to fully enjoy this fruit, you must eat it when it’s at peak ripeness. Ideally, Pawpaws are picked slightly underripe, this allows you to get to them before they drop and critters eat them.
How to Harvest and Store Onions
Onions intended for storage are harvested when the bulbs have reached their full size, and the tops start to dry and flop over. In most cases, you can start harvesting storage onions in mid to late summer, about 100-150 days after planting, depending on the variety. Keep an eye on the foliage of the onions. When about half of the foliage has turned brown and fallen over, it's usually a good indication that the onions are ready for harvest.
Garlic Harvesting, Curing & Storage: When & How
The best time to harvest garlic depends on the variety and growing conditions, but generally, it's harvested when the bulbs have reached their maximum size, and the plant's leaves have started to yellow and die back. Harvesting garlic at the right time ensures that the bulbs are fully developed and have a good flavor.
