Looks a good healthy plant linda, I have never grown the plum type of tomato, interesting to see how you get on with it?
Are you going to feed it with Tomorite?

Looks great, Linda, and you are going to enjoy picking them off the vine, nothing fresher.

I always pick them as soon as they are just ripe which they say encourages more to grow or ripen, as the plant no longer needs to concentrate on that one. So enjoy! ;D
