Become edible (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ripen

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">become edible</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for ripen that I've seen before include "Become ready to pick" , "Make ready" , "Grow older" , "Become ready to harvest" , "Become mature" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror and the Newsday.
