I have lots of tomatos left - all green.
Don't think they'll ripen on the vine now
 :idea: So Should I take em all off and perhaps make chutney :?:
Is it easy :?:

The old way to ripen at the end of the season was to put them in a dark drawer(never knew there were light ones) wrapped in brown paper.Then it changed to in a drawer with a banana,The gas given off by the banana acts as an ripener and yes it does work. 8)  :wink:  :lol:
