The secret is that when the shiny blue-purple turns to a dull purple-brown, the inside will be red-orange and will be ripe. Another clue is that the bottom of the fruit, which often remains green, since sunlight doesn't reach it, will turn red. The fruit will also, like other tomatoes, soften a bit.
How do you take care of Black Krim tomatoes?
method you use to hold up your Black Krim tomato plants is up to you. The important thing is to keep them off the ground, and make sure that whatever you are staking them with, is at least four feet tall. Water often before they set fruit, then a deep watering weekly, once the tomatoes form.
