I am growing some plum tomatoes out side in my allotment, they are looking very large but very green and I have stopped them after 3 to 4 trusses.
Will they never turn red?
I have taken some leaves off to help them get more sun, I water them every day.
Will feeding them help them on there way.
They are very large, some as big as my fist, never seen so large a tom as this.

Give them a chance, we're only just into August! Keep feeding them - it can't do any harm

ive got some beef tomatoes growing outside and i was thinking that they would stay green forever but over the last couple of days ive noticed that the colour is changing slightly on some of them.just pray for more sun to ripen them.shop bought ones cost a fortune and are not as tasty so we are waiting with bated breath.
also i have a 2 yr old who mooched around the lottie looking for something to eat,hence all the cherrie tomatoes being picked and eaten

I grow alot of tomatoes of various types. What will happen is that over the next few weeks (hopefully) bit by bit the tomato will start to ripen. I usually take them off the plant nearly but not quite ripe and then let them fully ripen at home. My tomatoes here in Milton Keynes are just beginning to ripen but only the early ones like Black Russian Prince and some of the Lilliputs, the rest are still very green. The whole lot should be in full swing by the end of August I would think
