Default Determining if tomatillos are ripe


Subject says all. There are a couple different varieties. I
have the classic small green type, a similar sized purple
type (called conveniently "Purple") and a large green type
that gives a fruit about the size of a beef tomato. Most,
but not all, are in a greenhouse (I am near Uppsala, Sweden).
For now temperature in greenhouse is holding between 20-30
degrees C, but maybe not much longer, at least at night.

I cross-pollinated with a brush a couple weekends ago (bees
did not pay much attention to the plants, butterflies a
little more). There are now obvious signs of fruit. I wish
to obtain seeds for next season, as this is my first effort.
That is all relvevant info I can think of.

Any suggestions on how to determine when tomatillos will be
ripe? Other suggestions, like fertilizers, are welcome (plants
look healthy for now).


Dominic
