Stages of ripening

[Farmette]

I know I saw a reference to the website that shows pictures of the various stages...saw it very recently in fact, but now I cannot find it on T'ville even after doing searches for it. Anyone know where it is?
Thanks!
Chris

Do you mean TomatoSite's Timeline of a Tomato Truss?

[Farmette]

Yes, thanks, that is the one. I also thought there was another on T'ville that showed up close the ripening of tomato, although that one was maybe a yr or 2 ago.

I remember that one! It was easier to google "stages of tomato ripening" and find something, though, than to search within tomatoville. Here's one -- scroll down a third of the page.

and there's also the USDA color chart

I've posted that tomato truss timeline here at Tville many times. It was done by Paul who used to be very active at GW. When some of us did the new FAQ's at GW a few years back, and I was the initial coordinator for that effort, it was Paul who did the uploading of all the new FAQ's. And bless him b'c I sure couldn't do it although Spike, who owned GW at the time had given me the passwords needed to do it.
