The size, color, smell, and texture is a great tell of when you should pick it! Your instincts should tell u when it’s time and it should pluck easily when it is! Let it sit on the counter for 3-5 days after you pick it so that it can get even sweeter! Hope that helps and enjoy the fruits of your labor:))
