Harvest

Avocados will not ripen until they’ve been picked from the tree. When you notice a fruit's natural sheen starts to dull a little, the fruit should be ready to pick. Harvest 2-3 fruit with this appearance, and pop them somewhere at room temperature inside for a week or 2 until they soften enough to eat. If they soften well and taste, delicious you can begin to harvest the rest of the crop.
