I don't know how to tell when the eggplant is ripe. Last year we had 2 or 3 types (LDG and Ichiban for sure, I think also one other) This year we just got Black Beauty for the nurseru, I think. But, how do you know they are ripe? Can't figure this one out. Do you go by size? feel? The seed packets from last year are no help either. I'm stumped....
thanks
