When is good time to Harvest Artichokes?

I have to admit that I know very little about artichokes. Does anyone know when the best time is to harvest them?  This is the 2nd year for my plant and it's pushing out some very nice growth.  5 new artichokes!


Well I guess the best time to harvest is just as they begin to open the bloom.

How to Grow Cherimoya from seed

Learn how to grow Cherimoya from seed.


DO NOT SOAK YOUR FIG CUTTINGS

Through lots of trial and error. I've learned that fig cuttings do not like lots of water. If you over saturate your cutting the bark and cambian layer will turn to mush and slough off. It's better to be on the dry side than to leave your cuttings in water.

DO NOT DO THIS!
