Forcing tomatoes to ripen by stopping watering them

I don’t know if the water has any impact, you can ripen a tomato in a dark suitcase under the stairs. One of my neighbours always had tomatoes at Christmas by doing this.

I cut the stem at the end of the year and hang it upside down over a cane for the same effect. I’m not a big fan of green tomato chutney.

The important detail with tomatoes and watering is regular and equal amounts otherwise they will split their skins and let disease in.
A pocket knife is not a weapon in the right hands it’s an essential garden tool.
