[QUOTE="catman529, post: 2866741, member: 9284"] According to the experts, picking a tomato at first blush and letting it ripen on the counter won't affect the flavor and it will be the same as if you let it ripen on the vine. Once the color starts to show, it takes no more nutrients from the plant and can ripen on its own either on or off the vine. So I either pick them partially ripe or ripe, just depends. If the birds start to get mine this year, I will pick them early. But they are very close to a river so I guess the birds better behave and go down to the river to drink. [/QUOTE]
