Many people are faced with the need to pick tomatoes before they are fully ripe.

As a rule, vegetables may not "arrive" as quickly as we would like.

If you do not have the opportunity to wait too long, then you can significantly influence the process of ripening tomatoes naturally, says landscape designer and agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , an expert of the online publication BelNovosti.

What trick do you need to know?

If you want green tomatoes to turn scarlet in just 2-3 days, you just need to provide them with special storage.

It is best to store vegetables in boxes that will allow them to remain tasty for a long period of time.

Along with tomatoes, you should also store other products that can speed up the ripening process of vegetables.

We are talking about ordinary apples.

Remember that the fruits must be ripe.

You can only get four apples per box of tomatoes. It's worth checking the box periodically, as the tomatoes may ripen faster than you expect.
