When to harvest amish paste tomato
How to harvest amish paste tomato
Cut or twist gently, supporting the stem — do not drag the fruit off, which tears the plant and often takes the growing tip with it. Handle carefully; bruises spread in storage.
Storing your harvest
Most crops keep best at cool room temperature rather than the fridge, which flattens flavour and texture. Refrigerate only once fully ripe, and only if you cannot eat it soon.
The mistake to avoid
Leaving ripe fruit on the plant. Every fruit left signals amish paste tomato to stop producing, so the harvest ends sooner than it needed to.
