Do you pick toms by size or colour?
The reason I ask is because I have two varietys in a grow bag, Allacante and Beefstake. Some toms are red and small and some big and green, and this occurs on both varietys, do you pick the big and green ones and let them ripen on a window sill and leave the small red ones to grow bigger? TIA -- Regards p.mc For personal replies please leave or type signature "p.mc" In the body of the message otherwise posts will not be received. Thanks |

Colour. Once they are red, they won't get any bigger. They develop a better taste if allowed to ripen on the plant. So pick the small red ones and eat them, and leave the big green ones on the plant to ripen. The other way round, the red ones won't grow and will after a time start to shrivel. The green ones may ripen or may rot, and the ripened ones won't taste as good as if they had ripened on the plant. -- Kay "Do not insult the crocodile until you have crossed the river" |
