Look at this hexagram that is created on black tomatoes due to the sepal that has suntanned the skin! Geometry in nature is omnipresent & spectacular. 🌱🖤🍅 How to know when a Black tomato is ripe? Look at the hexagram at the top of the black tomato (created by the suntan of the sepal) to see a reddish color, that’s when you know it is ripe (as shown in the first picture). If it is green (as shown in the second picture), then you know it is unripe. This tomato variety is absolutely delicious and is known as Indigo Rose. It is black due to the heightened presence of an antioxidant known as a Anthocyanins which are responsible for the purple/black/blue pigmentation in vegetables and fruits. Anthocyanins may have antioxidant and anti-aging benefits and may even enhance memory. Common fruits and vegetables rich in anthocyanins include blueberries, black grapes, blackberries, plums, purple cabbage, eggplant, purple cauliflower, purple potatoes, and black tomatoes.

Urban homesteading project number two in the wings: fire-roasted Hulk Smash-up salsa. Mostly from our garden (except for the onions, limes, and cilantro). . . . . . #urbangarden #urbangardening #urbangardenersrepublic #homegrownpeppers #homegrowntomatoes #heirloomtomatoes #blackkrim #blackvernissage #greenvernissage #indigorosetomatoes #blackcherrytomato #jalapeños #poblanos #sunrisebumblebee #newmexicochile #homegrowngarlic #cilantrolime #salsa #fireroastedtomatoes #bgenation #biggreenegg #bigggreenegginc #serranochile #growyourownfood #growsomethingred #growsomethinggreen #growsomethingyellow #growsomethingpurple

Our first big harvest, AKA, the Uncrackening. One of the things I learned from last season's heirloom tomatoes is that I need to harvest all the ripening tomatoes before a major influx of rain to prevent cracking. We picked the two deep red ones the other day and they are ready to eat. The bright green tomatoes are actually "green when ripe" tomatoes and we'll explore them tomorrow. The rest are in a variety of stages of development. . . . . . #heirloomtomatoes #tomatosnob #blackkrim #greenvernissage #blackvernissage #sunrisebumblebee #blackcherrytomato #indigorosetomatoes #urbangarden #urbangardening #urbangardenersrepublic #communitygarden #harvest #sonya6300
