Abstract
The effects of harvesting prunes at different stages of maturity on the eating quality of rehydrated prunes were studied during two seasons. Fruit from commercial orchards were harvested six times at weekly intervals. The total soluble solids, the ratio of total soluble solids to titratable acidity, and dry matter increased and titratable acidity declined during the harvesting periods. The sensory tests showed that linear regressions relating eating quality to each of the above chemical indices of maturity were significant.
