When will I see tomatoes?

[Anonymous]

Just planted tomatoes on May 15 for the first time. I used one of those big handing stands. The plants are growing like crazy and have little yellow flower buds. When will I be able to eat my tomatoes?

The flowers (if pollinated) will become the tomatoes. Depending on the variety and size I would guess the earliest you will have ripe tomatoes is in July.

I just have picked my first ripening ones (I pick at first "blush" to avoid birds) but those are giant cherry tomatoes. That plant already is filled with tomatoes. Hope that helps.
