Approaches harvest
Else clues• Ages
• Ages, as cheese
• Approaches maturity
• Attains maturity
• Becomes less green
• Becomes ready for plucking
• Becomes ready to harvest
• Changes color, maybe
• Comes of age, so to speak
• Comes to maturity
• Matures
• Nears the harvesting stage
• Prepares
• Prepares to be picked
• Reaches fruition
• Turns edible
• Turns red, perhaps
• Yellows, bananawise
