RE: Heirloom Tomato Plants in Full Bloom + Garden Updates🌱+ What's Coming This Week!
That is amazing. I am still waiting for my tomatoes to turn red. Now we have frost so I think I will have to pick them. You are so lucky. We had a bunch of rain too many days. Thanks for sharing. Upvoted.
You could always try the paper bag trick, @gardengirlcanada. You might already know, but for the curious:
Put the unripened tomatoes in a bag with a ripe banana and close the bag and place somewhere cool and dry, away from of sunlight. The banana will release an ethylene gas which ripens fruits. This is common with Commercial Tomato growers, but they use the concentrated gas. Most store bought tomatoes comes from thousands of miles away from where they are sold, picked green, and treated with gas to ripen them.
I'm nearing completion of part 3 of the series and I have included all of you that provided some thoughtful commentary in the previous series and will try to write this next part with you all in mind. Thanks again for your support and hopefully this next part will be the spark that leads to more people growing food and their income. 🔥🚀
