My friend is a truck driver and she says that when they put the strawberries on the truck, they are green.
Then, they spray them with a chemical that causes them to ripen in transit.
I am really interested in the refractometer and high brix gardening, but I don't know where to start.
Anyone have some good links for a newbie?
Thanks,

There is lots of stuff in past posts that you can find pretty easily.
Try a search with BSA, RN, R, RR, RRR AND "refractometer", "brix", "gardening" and similar terms in various combos.
That is how I find stuff here!
Please do share your adventures with the refractometer and gardening here. Until many of us do that using ML's ideas and have reported back results, we will not really know what the standard for excellent produce of various kinds should be.
For example: Some think that a plum of 16 slightly fuzzy is excellent, because they have never seen, smelt, or tasted one of 27+ and so fuzzy one can't get a more accurate reading!!!
These were grown by a 92 yr old friend of mine, and I am eating a few this week. YUM!!!! After eating these, it is so obvious that there is a cruddy acidic note in the flavor of lesser plums. An encounter like this with true food quality in unforgettably motivating...pressing ahead full steam now to find or grow as much excellent produce as possible.
Keep seeking, applying, sharing accurate knowledge in order to
Keep seeking abundant life and joy!

Thanks Di,
I once had an organge that was from FL, the size of a grapefruit and was the sweetest fruit I have ever tasted.
I would love to taste that again!

This is a reply to # 1,472,129that we have objective evidence how great the diff in quality may be!!!
Today, very few folks have actually had the privilege of encountering and tasting ANY top quality fresh food WHATSOEVER!
One of the reasons for poor eating habits is that produce that is about 50% of the absolute maxed out brix reading not only is not very good for us, but tastes crummy!!
Going by one's taste buds, and with a choice between this produce and artificially enhanced Frankenfoods, by which I mean pretty much ALL processed food including ones claiming to be "organic", an unenlightened person will pick the most dangerous junk because it has been doctored up to taste better than the poor quality fresh foods widely available to them!
These are the people who claim they "hate vegetables" or "hate fresh fruit." They get sick more, get disabled more, have a poorer quality o life and are adding to the budget-breaking cost of health care and social services in the USA and elsewhere.
How exciting that we have the option to do differently and encourage others to join us in healthier choices.
Glad you are here, Paraboy!
