Hi - greenback is a problem of tomatoes where the top (usually) refuses to ripen and remains green - hence the name.

It's usually caused by too much heat or sunlight and or not enough potash.

Thank you John for letting me know so  i should have lots of ripe tomatos  next year with a bit of luck and lots of hope :!:
