Geocache Description:

byop

The Cache is not at the listed coordinates. Gz is in plain sight! Do not put your hands where you can not see! it is also not the most salubrious place, but you will understand "why here" when you solve the puzzle!

So, how do you know when your almonds are ripe?

1
Examine the almonds on the tree to see whether the hull is starting to split. The hull will crack open and show the shell of the almond inside.

2
Keep watering the tree during the time when the hulls are splitting. They will stop maturing if they don't get enough water.

3
Harvest the almonds when at least 75 percent of the hulls have split. Harvesting is done by shaking the tree.

This year I collected 27110351 Ripe Almonds.
