🔍 When is it ripe?
Turns from green to red, orange, or yellow depending on species. Ripe when skin gives slightly and colour is fully developed. Use tongs and burn off the tiny glochid spines with a flame or rub in sand before handling. Sweet, mild flesh.
The tunas are red, turning deep purple the longer they are on the cactus pad. The soil is poor and shallow; poor taste but fruit is suitable for planting/seeding purposes.
