        When displaying them try and get them centred on the plate and all facing the same way (forward). It can make a difference as some judges mark for display. :dbgrtmb:

          @Zigs I'm still planning on coming, would you like to try some of my bottled Blackberry juice for making some no mess, quick maturing Blackberry wine?

          I've got one over 2 feet long that needs straightening, but I'd have to take at least one of the shelves and a load of food out our fridge to fit it in, and I don't think Mrs Scrungee would be happy about that.

              That's nothing, I'll post a pic of something much bigger, redder, and much more knobbly and scabby than that tomorrow, it's getting a bit late to pull it out to take a pic of it now.

              Putting toms in the fridge when they're ready will suspend ripening, enabling more to come on and join them in a uniform display.

              Soften the calyxes with water and coax them into perfect positions.
