Here come the tomatoes!

[susieq100]

After having harvested in 1's and 2's from at least 8 plants they are now all starting to ripen ... it is going to be a tomato frenzy!

I can't wait to go out and fill a bucket rather than pick the odd one here and there..........

[Florence Fennel]

Will you fill a bucket for me while you're there Bins? There's no glut of tomatoes forecast here I'm afraid.

Aw Flo ...........why no toms? Didn't get blight did you?

well i dont know about blight - but i know that the weather up our neck of the woods has been appauling this year - hardly any of my toms have set and they are taking ages to ripen

I'm likely to be dusting off the recipe for green tomato chutney unless we get a lovely late summer!

Well I'm a bit further north than sheffield and I'm going to consider myself very lucky having seen this thread.

I picked about 10 today when every other day it has been one or two. Yes, I think my glut is coming.

I picked 7 ripe tomatoes today & used the 3 I had in the fridge for our tea this evening. Looks like it won't be long before more are ready as they are starting to look a little rosy (at last).

I certainly won't be sowing as many tomato seeds next year as they have taken over!
Glad to have found some tomato recipes on here that I can freeze for pasta sauces, etc.
