Here, the blackberry season has already begun, and I really enjoy this time of year. After my gym session, I've started picking up a few blackberries here and there, and they are great.

Make sure they are black and velvety when you take them out of the bush. They are sweeter the softer they are. However, if they are excessively soft, they may be difficult to harvest since they may crumble under your touch.

Although I am aware that it is best to collect blackberries while wearing gloves, I prefer to feel the berries with my hands to determine whether they are fully ripe. If not, I will leave the berries out for a few more days to allow them to do so.
Because of this, I might return home with some scars from the harvest, but I don't mind. It's worthwhile
Happy Wednesday everyone!

I'm too scared to eat the ones near me. Too many things I've seen happening in that bush haha.
Oh, sorry to hear that. Well, for the reason you considered, I believe it's crucial to pay attention where you're piking them. However, there are many blackberry bushes growing quite tall in wild areas nearby where I reside, and I'm confident that are safe to eat. I've harvested them plenty of times, and I see others doing likewise. Once harvested, I also soak them with baking soda at home for 10 minutes and then rinse, just to make sure they are all clean up from any kind of armful bacteria. If I'm still alive and thriving, I must be doing okay. 😂 You should come on over to Chertsey and pick some up later. Their harvesting will continue throughout July and even into August.
That's awesome. Sometimes when I'm on a farm or countryside I do eat them directly from the plant. I have good immunity so I'm usually ok. Just a city like London is too busy and people don't respect nature enough 😂
