Zero ripe toms for me yet... got a bit of shading on the top windows with fleece.... loads of green toms, not even a hint of redness!!!

I have got loads of ripe toms, been eating then for 2 weeks now and have so many in the fridge, im going to have to make some pasta sauces for storing at the weekend.  The are gigante/grapolo/marmande and gartenperle, all outside.  the italian plums in the greenhouse are just begining to turn.  i must have been doing something right for once.

Your rough location in your profile would be useful, so that we know what part of the UK to move to!

Just had my first half dozen properly ripen this week. I think the variety is First in the Field

[wighty]

I've just been down the garden and we can have one small red tomatoe each for tea.  That's two then. Hopefully this is the start and there will be more but it's raining at the moment.

Update... finally two or three small toms on each plant...all green.
Hopefully in a couple of weeks they'll ripen.

On positive side...no pests this year...abs. none.

Tons of green tomatoes on my plants, but no sign of reddening anything yet. I planted seedlings of Moneymaker, Gardeners Delight and several mystery varieties passed on from a neighbour. They look happy and healthy, despite my only getting there a few times a week to get some water down them... and a bit of Tomorite once a week when I remember. How long do they typically take from flowering to harvest time? Is there a rule of thumb?

I'VE GOT ONE RIPENING!

And it's the biggest.

Where one leads.........

Had first two ripe, red toms last night - tumbling tom. Delicious, but not very filling!  

All the other plants are smothered in green toms though - so here's hoping they ripen soon too.

This is my first year growing tomatoes, and i've had a lot of green fruit for a while now... and I got my first red tomatoes last week. Now they're all going red, and they taste amazing

I'm growing gardeners delight and alicante.

Well done you...

still all green here this year.

Still an improvement on last year when we were rained out :-)

I got 3 tomatoes!  :o One is about 2 inches across, and considering they are beef tomatoes, they still have a few weeks left. Hopefuly the Tomato feed will see to that

[kezlou]

All my tomatoes are still green, all different sizes. One of my Marmande plants is only starting to any signs of fruiting so hopefully by September i'll have some lovely toms.

[SalJ1980]

I've got 50-odd tomatoes on 4 plants (don't know if that's good but I'm chuffed with it!), from teeny to full size (all cherry toms), they are all as green as green can be!

I have one plum tomato ripening so i hope it spreads, is it true a ripening banana speeds up the process?
