Anyone else out there concerned that their tomatoes will ripen before the frost comes?? Just pick those that are of good size and place them inside the house in a dark area inside a brown paper bag. Be sure to keep a single layer of them and not overcrowd the bag. In about 3-4 days you will have a bag of ripened tomatoes. If you want to speed the process up slightly, add a empty banana peel to the bag. It will give off a gas that will speed up the ripening even more.

- I have lived all my life in Ontario, Canada and moved from Toronto to a small town in rural Ontario almost 23 years ago. I love it here! Everything moves at a slower pace and there is room to grow lots of various plants. I have 5 children whom are all adults now and two granddaughters that I adore. I love to learn, learn and learn some more about the various uses for plants, companion gardening, natural methods of pest control etc. etc. etc.
