I pick mine when they just start to turn blushy looking. One year I
didn't

get one good tomato due to varmints getting them, so now I don't
wait and

put them in my kitchen window to ripen. I've got a few small ones,
too,

about the size of large plums. I'm looking forward to the larger
tomatoes

when they finally put on fruit!

Inquiring minds need to know: Were you able to discern any
difference in taste between vine ripened and kitchen window ripened?

I didn't notice any difference in the taste, but ever since the year where
the garden thieves took EVERY tomato I had, I've been pulling them as soon
as I see them begin to turn and I let them ripen the rest of the way in my
kitchen window. They taste REALLY good.
