Green tomato chutney? But I am surprised that in Essex your tomatoes are not ripening. Where do you have them Hijuju.

I have to admit I have been naughty as each time there is a ripe tomatoe in greenhouse I have yes mmmmmmmmmm very tasty

Yes MG I am surprised too .

they are growing outside

How much sun are they getting?

My outdoor toms are only turning red this last week Hijuju give it a bit longer if they are getting the sun? We have had such a miserable wet August here its really delayed some things

Personally, I have only had a few red ones, most are still green, about half had been destroyed by myself due to blossom end rot, which keeps reappearing despite my best efforts.

What I found strange was that 2 of my red tomatoes were green inside and tasted foul.

Alex as you probably know blossom and rot is down to uneven watering... Your green inside problem could be in part due to this too, along with the excessive heat you had earlier. Can also be down to a lack of feeding or not enough feeding.

they do get a fair bit of sun , that is when we dont get alot of rain
