No tomatoes yet...

[salilah]

I've had a few outdoor ones from a couple of bushes of Pomodoro (I think)
Indoors going well if slow - though I did get caught by one particular plant (Moonglow). I thought I was growing a white cherry - well, no, bright orange and enormous!!!
Sadly the OSU Blue didn't make it :-(
One Inca Andian is ripe (not yet tasted) - otherwises lots black cherry, sungold select II and gold cherry - yum!

mine are rubbish but that's cos I was a little to over zealous with the removal of leaves!

Removing leaves?

I still only have one tomato by the way.

[VirginVegGrower]

Yep - I've removed lower leaves too as each truss is set and grown. Allows air to circulate and the sun to hit your cordon toms - just like the advert on TV where the tomatoes all wear RayBans

[Piggle]

Yes - I fogot to stand back and have a look . Scalped - although they have started setting fruit now.

only green toms here in what should be sunny Bournemouth. A mix of cherry and standard cordon toms both outdoors in sheltered garden and inside a lean to green house. Can't wait for the first sign of orange hue but they are definitely taking their time this year.

Been there last year, got the tee shirt to prove it! This year I've only removed the leaves below the first truss and any which looked a bit dodgy. The plants look much more like..............well................tomato plants!

It has been a great year for me - my hanging baskets are pretty much all ripe and done with, will be pulling them up in the next week or so once the last few stragglers are done. My Italian beefsteaks have done incredibly well, I have had about 20 large toms off them. The worst ones have been the gardener's delight - they were slow to start and I've only had 4 off my 2 plants, but all trusses have set and have large, deep green fruit. I am confident they will all ripen in time, and no green tom chutney in sight!

My toms were started from seed indoors, they have been outdoors since late may, get about 4 hrs sun a day, but are against a white wall of my house and a brick wall dividing next doors kitchen from mine, so it is a heat trap. They don't seem to struggle with lack of sunlight...they get fed from flowering with seaweed, then once fruit has set I move onto a mix of tomorite and seaweed. Good luck with your toms guys!

[HeyWayne]

I counted four tomatoes last night! At this rate I'm going to have a glut...

Have had more than a kilo of ripe tomatoes every week for the last 3 months. Theres a lot to be said for early sowing (especially if you can give them a bit of heat)
