题目: Tomatoes How To

I have a question on cherry toms, romas, yellow pear.. most variety's of Toms..

How the heck do you get them to ripen up.. I have toms that are on the vine and I thought over the last 2 weeks they would have ripened.. my bushes (32 of them).. are bearing fruit like you would not believe.. but, they aren't turning ripe.. What can I do????

ScarletRose: you can ripen them on a window ledge as individual tomatoes, also you can hang the whole bush/plant ina shed and they will ripen. If all else fails I've got a reciepe for green tomatoe pickle

skipinnz: Too many for the window sill.. and the plants are in the garden.. I would have to pull them out.. maybe just the heat was too much to where they need the cool air.. not sure..

But, I still would like that recipe..

skipinnz: thanks for that also LOLOL.....it might be a good thing to explain what raisins are...I sent recipes to people in USA and they always ask what raisins are...Im not saying everybody but it does seem strange that they ask.

Bernice: Really? some folks dont know what raisins are and they are in the US? wow, that surprises me big time. I grew up watching tv ads from the US for the California Raisins ( heard it thru the grapevine song) - In Canada we get nearly every US TV channel so we see all the US ads.
