[0:05] I get a [0:06] question quite often as to when to pick the vegetables. [0:10] Let's take an eggplant. [0:11] An eggplant can get very big but the seeds get bigger. [0:15] You want to optimize so that it's the right color, [0:18] but also that the seeds haven't gotten so big [0:21] that they're going to interfere with the quality of the plant. [0:24] It's the same with the zucchini as zucchini can get this big [0:27] or get that big. [0:29] This big is optimal because the seeds are small. [0:32] You can eat the whole plant. [0:33] So most people bigger is better. [0:36] But a lot of times what you want is, is optimize that. [0:40] Small to medium size is much better. [0:43] If you have any questions, there's a website [0:45] the University of Minnesota ask a master gardener.
