Sweet Olive Tomato Thick skin
« on: August 16, 2010, 08:04 »
I have successfully grown Unwins Sweet Olive Tomatoes in my tiny greenhouse. Loads of tomatoes have set that taste fantastic BUT they have very thick tough skins.  What have I done wrong?

Some tomatoes do have thicker skins than others.
Fo the supermarkets this would be a plus point, because they wouldn't split as they are picked, so they may have been bred to be like that :(

I don't think there is anything you can do to change it either, sorry.

Try a different variety next year, I think ;)

By the way, welcome to the forum. Please can you alter your profile to show whereabouts in the country you are, as sometimes your location makes a difference to the advice you are asking for :)
