Tomato Ripening.

Some of mine are now an acceptable size, but no sign of ripening in the

Should I just wait or?...
Last time I grew them ISTR removing them and placing them in a drawer to
ripen, but I think they were beginning to turn red slightly by that time.
I'd appreciate any comments on this?
The plants are on a S facing window ledge, so plenty of light.
Best to wait for them to ripen naturally but this has worked for me at
the end of the season, especially with a banana in the drawer. This
gives off ethylene gas which encourages ripening
