Tickle the bunches and the truly ripe ones fall off into your hands.

   I'm getting my first crop of blueberries but don't know when to pick
them.  If I leave them on the stem, waiting for all to ripen, will the first
ripe get over ripe and fall off?  I've got bird netting over them and
picking them one at a time off the stem is a bit tedious.
