Tomatoes still cropping?
 
M Moneymaker and Shiley plants stopped about a month ago in the greenhouse.
I'm still getting approx half pound, every other day from my Supersweet 100,
cherry tomato plant.
Anyone else still cropping?

I've finished cropping and eating the Gardeners Delight in the garden.
The remaining bunches are now repining indoors hung on a length of
string.

I have just chopped up about 5lbs of very ripe tomatoes to make soup and
there are still some ripening. In addition we gave about 5lbs of green
tomatoes to the local pub to make chutney (all grown under glass)

My Moneymaker are just finishing; they are in a mini-greenhouse whose
canopy was removed ages ago, so they're outdoors.

Yes. I have an enormous cherry tomato "bush" (I didn't prune it back)
which grew from a self set from my compost (the same compost provided
self-set cantaloupe melons) and they are still cropping.

Hmmm, I wonder why my main croppers finished so early, in fact, it may have
been 5 weeks ago.
This year for the first time, I used growbags, fed fortnightly with
tomorite, rather than my normal habit of planting direct into the g/house
soil.
Perhaps next year I'll just use a growbag for the cherry toms.

Hi You lucky lot

My crop was decimated by blight after growing the best crop ever.
both outdoors and under glass.
Will try blight resistant next year

Tomatoes are still in flower in the greenhouse - and cropping.

So are sweet peppers.

The toms are Marmande and Moneymaker. I won't grow the latter next year as
they taste rather bland.

Lowest night temp. in the unheated / uninsulated greenhouse has fallen from
14 to 6 degrees C in the past few days.... ugh

Best wishes,

Keith

Marmande, I haven't seen that for sale in the local nurseries. Did you buy
it in seed form?
