hey folks, I live in Maine, and our plums this year are comming in like CRAZY. They appear almost ripe (they're atleast 95% deep purple, with only a very tiny bit still slightly green). They taste very tarte like wild crab apples, and they're still very firm. Are plums like apples, and should be harvested after the first frost, or do I only have another week or so to wait? Our grapes have just ripened as well and were just perfect as of last wednesday, if that helps anyone.Thanks!
idk. eat one and find out
Take them off while you can. Once they ripe even further you wont be able to get near your plum trea because of wasps.Here in the netherlands atleast.. evil fuckers.
