My apricots have just started to turn color. How long is it likely
to take until they are ripe? We are about to go away on vacation for
about 2 weeks, and if they are likely to be fully ripe before we
return, I will encourage the neighbors to take them. (In the hopes
that the local wild-life doesn't discover they are good to eat, as
well as to prevent waste.) If not, we will look for them when we get
home. I think the neighbor is likely to pick them under-ripe if we
encourage him to harvest them.
Thanks,
