Q & A When do I pick green tomatoes

Questions and Answers from the Gardener …

Question:
Shirley asked … I love green tomatoes..could you give me some suggestions on ''when to pick them before they ripe ''to a red color??

Answer:
The Gardener:  What a predicament … a tomato will turn when the plant tells it that it is ready to turn.  There is no time limit, no temperature, no other variables that can be measured to know when a tomato is going to turn.  Just keep an eye on the plant.  When your tomato starts to change to a more yellow, or reddish color … it’s done!  Take that puppy out of the oven.  Fried green tomatoes here we come  J
