Experienced buyers can identify quality berries in a minute by paying attention to a number of simple signs.
Many gardeners and summer residents are relieved of the need to buy cherries and other berries, because all of this is already growing on the plot.
The rest buy fruits and berries in stores, where there is a chance to buy not the best fruits. For example, berries often turn out to be watery, bland or sour.
Fresh and sweet cherries are always complemented by a green stalk. A dark and dry stalk indicates that the berries are stored for a long time.
Such fruits have lost some of their taste and nutritional properties, so it is better to look for another option.
The first harvest is usually the most expensive, because after winter many people want to enjoy ripe and fresh berries. This is used by unscrupulous farmers who pump the plants with "chemicals" to harvest faster.
The cherry season usually starts in June and ends in early August. During this period, the berries ripen in natural conditions.
