Description

The listing, Garden Huckleberries has ended.

Garden Huckleberries. They are annuals, but produce a full crop in 3 months - pick them when the berries turn dull black and start to get a little soft. I usually just wait until after the first hard frost.

Start them indoors the same time as tomatoes and peppers. They look like blueberries, but can not be eaten raw, they must be cooked into pies and other desserts. They make a delicious syrup that you can use on ice cream and pancakes/waffles.

The best thing is that birds do NOT eat them, I never have to cover my crop. Once ripe, the berries will stay on the plant until you decide to pick them (rather than falling to the ground like blueberries). I've left the berries on the plant for weeks after being ripe without any problems.

Would you sell these on a Get It Now deal, and if yes, how much would you be asking for them?

I won't be able to do a Get It Now deal for this particular auction, but once I relist in a few days I will. The minimum Get It Now price is 2000 credits.

Not sure how to do the Get It Now deal, I'll have to look into it. But i'd ask for 1500-2000.
