they will taste lovely when they are all ripe

We're all getting exasperated!
Nice looking crop Mags - like me, lots of fruit, good size but sooo slow to ripen. :?
However - I picked 6 today. Nice size, so a pound and a half I would think.
My tumbler tomatoes, in a pot on the patio, have gone crazy. Tons of foliage and now a nice lot of green cherry toms, waiting to ripen. I've planted a couple of geraniums in with them, to give them the idea of what red is! :lol: (So saying, I think they only ripen to orange, but I'd need to find the seed packet to confirm)

I wonder what Cassie would make of a squirrel?:? :-D
