Out here in the wilds of Washington State in zone 6, I have tons of
tomatoes. About 98% of them are as green as an Irish Shamrock. Last year I
had lots of ripe tomatoes by mid - July. Course, it has been ungodly hot out
here this Summer. Currently at 100 degrees right now. Does that affect the
ripening process? Is anyone else experiencing the same problem?

Thanks,
Bill


I heard a folklore story years ago about a gardener putting a shovel
into one side of the roots of half his plants to get them rippened.
Does that apply here? I don't know.

Good luck.
