some of my tomatos are growing quite normally, good colour & taste fine. Have a couple of plants that are growing with dark green veiny patches, starting at the top. Bottom of the fruit are a normal green. Even some that have already turned red, have still got visable dark green lines. I am feeding once a week , could I be doing anything wrong

Are you sure of the variety of tomato you are growing? Some of the heirloom varieties don't ripen to a solid red but have stripes of green. Often these have a wonderful flavor even though they may have odd shapes in addition to their different coloring. Have you tried tasting some of the oddball tomatoes? If they are tasty, don't worry about the appearance. Looks aren't everything! (I have bought tomato starts several times that were mislabeled - part of the gardening adventure!)

you're properly perfect that there is little huge difference in those issues. As you probable recognize a extreme nitrogen fertilizer may deliver about attractive foliage yet few tomato culmination. i am going to't for my area vouch for his or her products yet in accordance to the producer's reality sheet tomato-tone is 3-4-6 plus small adjustments interior the percentage of Magnesium and Sulfur therefore there is not sufficient of a huge difference to rigidity about in my opinion.

It's just the way that they are ripening and the way the sun is hitting them. As long as they taste okay I wouldn't worry about it.
