I have four tomato plants that produced and ripen great for about 6 weeks. I was getting 5 or 6 ripe tomatoes a day. Then they just totally quit turning red. I have tons of medium or large green tomatoes, but not one has turned red in three weeks. I have never seen this before. Does anyone have any idea why or what I can do.

There was a post similar to that the other day and someone mentioned that it was probably from the cooler temps we've been having. You may want to go ahead and pick them and sit them in a sunny window or just a warmer place in your kitchen. That way, you can ensure the squirrels don't get them.
