My tomato plants are four feet tall and are laden with full market
size green tomatoes. Seem to me that some should begin to ripen but
they continue to stay green. In fact it seems that they have been that
way for almost a month. When may i expect to see some ripe tomatoes?
BTW I'm in the north Atlanta area.
Thanks,
Johnny

are they getting enough sun? try picking one or two now, and sit them in
the sun, outside or inside. they should turn in a couple of days, depending
on variety. or you could get your fill of fried green maters! lol

They taste....wonderful! A little tart, with spicy overtones.
Just like Rae says....a bit of batter (we just dredge with flour,
whatever coating you prefer, I feel too much batter or coating detracts
from the flavor), and fry 'em. We prefer ours sliced about 3/8, so's
they get crispy on the outside and tender on the in.
The more green they are, the more tart they will be. Some like them
seasoned with things like Emeril's essence, we prefer S & P only.
Seriously, do some.......they are freakin' awsome.
It's also a great way to use the pre-frost greenies.
