Why those last tomatoes won’t go red

-

As temperatur­es begin to drop, your tomato plants will start to slow down too. Ripening becomes sporadic when temperatur­es remain around 15˚C, and when the mercury drops below 12˚C, tomatoes won’t ripen at all. You may be left with a bumper crop of green tomatoes but pick them anyway and you can ripen them indoors or cook them as they are.
