how to get tomoates to ripen in october ??

Question

I have tomatoes growing I only got the plant late in the year but there are several green tomatoes now its terned colder how best to get them to ripen ?? my gran grew cherry tomoates but in a green house

Answer 1

Put them in a dish with a couple of bananas,it really works

Answer 2

If they are outside, you may have to bring them in! You can grow tomatoes year-round inside the house! Just use pots and keep them in a sunny window, that isn't too drafty. Go ahead and pick the green ones you have now, and put them in the window.

Answer 3

window sill is your best bet, an occasional occurance of a fruit fly will indicate if the tomato is ripening well.

Answer 4

wrap them one at a time in any paper and put them in a egg try and just put them in the dark for a couple off days they will ripen and stay firm as well

Answer 5

My brother brought his in just before a frost. He laid them single layer in an unheated garage, probably 50 degrees. Just leave them alone and check often. They ate their last fresh tomato on Christmas day.

Answer 6

Try putting them in a brown paper bag on top of the fridge. Works well with avocadoes too..

Answer 7

try setting them in a window sill and leaving them for a while, turn them daily so the sun will hit them on all sides. should work out ok as long as the window sill gets plenty of sunshine.

Answer 8
