Beautiful! What variety are the large white ones? Do they taste as good as they look?

the white ones are just non ripe KBX tomatoes. i have a pesky groundhog and decided to pick them early. i had been away for a while and came home to lots of tomatoes with a few bites taken out. i didnt want to risk it

Good idea! White or yellow, they're still good looking tomatoes

Nice looking tomatoes! I finally was able to pick some large ones just yesterday, though now I'm faced with uneven ripening so far with KBX. I will be slicing open my first one for the year, a nice looking Red Barn tomato. Amazing that I have no ripe Black Cherry yet.

uneven ripening is no fun to deal with. i had it so severe a few yrs ago the tomatoes got chucked in the garbage

i also have a large cherry type called prize of the trials which has no ripe cherries yet. whats going on?

Congrats on the harvest! My cherries (with the exception of Sungold) were all very late this year too. My first three ripe tomatoes were actually Sungold, Jaune Flamme, and Cherokee Purple.

Happy that your long wait is over- we seem to have about the same amounts on our counters.

I tried a bunch of new cherry tomatoes this year and about half of them haven't ripened yet- not all cherries are early...although I think they should be.

Nice!

I have had a few ripe PL early girls, Piennolo and a couple dwarf tomatoes here and there...but I am still waiting on the motherload.

I agree, it is about to start "raining tomatoes".

What a great harvest! I will not be seeing anything like that for about a month.

Enjoy!
