Question

Is it better to pick of large tomatoes before they are red so new ones will grow

Answer 1

NO LEAVE THEM TO RIPEN.IT,S A FALLACY.

Answer 2

pick em when they are just short of perfectly ripe. they will continue to ripen on the kitchen counter.

picking them green will not increase your yield measurably and there is a limit to the counter ripening.

Answer 3

Picking the large ones while green will not significantly affect the growth of the other tomatoes. And, when you pick a tomato green, it never develops the full flavor that a vine-ripened tomato has. In fact, it might even start to rot before it fully ripens.

Answer 4

Nature doesn't need this kind of help.

Best wishes. h
