It is very hot now, and my grapes are ripe. When is the best time to pick them? Are you under pressure?
1. Meteorological factors: Temperature and rainfall will affect the maturity and taste of grapes. Generally speaking, the season with suitable temperature and moderate rainfall can provide the best picking conditions.
2. Grape varieties: Different varieties of grapes have different ripening times. Some early-maturing varieties may mature in early summer, while some late-maturing varieties may not mature until autumn. So you need to know the maturity time of the grape varieties you grow.
3. Appearance and taste of grapes: Before picking, observing the appearance and taste of grapes can give you some clues about the best picking time. For example, whether the color of grapes changes, whether the fruit is full, whether there is fragrance, etc.
4. Weather forecast: Before deciding the picking time, please pay attention to the weather forecast to avoid picking in bad weather conditions, such as rainy days or storms.
In short, the best time to pick grapes is when the grapes are just ripe, and weather and climate factors should also be taken into account.
