I thought I'd taken a couple of nice photos in the garden today. Then the youngest daughter does this! I give up.

Temperature is major component. Optimum temperature for ripening on the vine is 21-24C (70-75F). Above or below this and the process slows down. We're averaging 18C (64F) here, in what is meant to be summer! Hence my call for the sun to come out.

Stripey Tigerella tomatoes! Shame there's no sun to ripen them.
