plowed a single field on a non irrigated farm
planted 1 single plot of raspberry
it took 120 minutes (2hrs) to ripen
when it was ripe the time to waste started at 2.7 hrs(162 minutes)
i monitored it over the next 162 minutes (2.7 hrs)
there was no change in appearance untill the time to waste timer ran out
the field was unharvestable by any means
(and i have all the harvesters and the combine)

this was a true test carried out in a methodical fashion and the findings speak for themselves

1 . the time to waste timer is accurate
2. at least for raspberry there is no appearance change until the time to waste has run out
3. when it was showing wilted wasted plot it was not harvestable
I find the case to be proved !! Well done driverdave, and thank you
