I'll admit, I'm not much of a vegetable grower, but i decided to
plant some green
peppers and set out a few tomato
plants (i grew from
seed).
I don't like green
peppers, but a customer gave me a few
plants;so, i gave them a "shot". Well, the
plants stayed green all summer and got about a foot tall, but the
peppers all rotted before they could ever get very big.... I guess it rained too much. Admittedly, I'm not crazy about green
peppers, and the customer who gave them to me cheated me anyway... (lol, made me really have a distaste for green
peppers. I even let the bugs destroy the
plant...)
Now, the tomatoes i did much better with. I had many cherry tomato
plants and they produced a lot of fruit. I've got a gripe though... On the
seed packet (i can't remember the brand) it showed nice juicy red looking tomatoes... I HAVE YET TO SEE MY FIRST RED TOMATO!!! I waited and waited and waited but they would never turned red!! They stayed orange until they rotted on the
plant...dammmm lol I even picked some and thought maybe i could coax them into turning red that way... no luck.
Is it normal for tomatoes to stay orange?????
