Cherry ripe, cherry ripe, ripen I cry

We’ve been reading on twitter that people have started to pull up their tomatoes as the plants are on their way out. Perhaps it’s because we’re in the south of the UK our tomatoes are still looking semi-healthy and we may possibly get a few more days out of them.

Well we hope so as we need the fruits to ripen. The ones above in the raised beds are still going. The banana skin on the plant trick didn’t work to ripen them, so let’s just keep our fingers crossed for a couple of days of sun!

The one-off plum tomato plant above is looking great and we reckon we may go for these again next year but they need to ripen.

The self seeded cherry tomato at the bottom of the garden is still growing like crazy too and there’s fruits a go-go!

Please sunshine can you show your face for a few more days or it’s chutney or fried green tomatoes for us here at Weeds HQ!
