First Frost/Discovery Time!

Sitting there in warning all over the car.

I'm pleased to have got most of my wildflower seeds planted out. All that's left are the the meadow cranesbill, the heathers, the indoor herbs and the bluebells. These last require special care apparently. I need to stick them in a compost tray, put them in a plastic bag and leave them in a fridge for a few weeks; apparently they need the cold to get them going. Even then it takes years for them to grow, but they're worth it which is more than can be said for the meadow cranesbill, a flower that can look a bit scrappy/weedy/ insignificant. It needs close-ups to be appreciated. Still, if it's good for soil and pollinators the attempt is worthwhile, even if I am tempted to just throw the seeds into the air and see what happens.*

Brought in the apples yesterday, left all the chewed ones - which means something like half of them, cos I don't use pesticides. The result is enough for a grand crumble or just nice chomps for a few days. I'm impressed with that little tree; beautiful blossoms, sweet plentiful fruit, but never tried these cooked.

Meanwhile the tomatoes. These are very small, some are red, many are still green. So do I pick them now and leave them on a windowsill to ripen? Is it too early to do that? My friend who gave me the plants recommends it, but they are still so very tiny (tomatoes, not the friend) I don't know whether to leave them just a little longer. Never grown toms before.

Edited to add: Thanks to the suggestions of Mallorys_Camera, I'm conducting a toms-related experiment.

Some have been left on the plant to see how far they get.
Some, including the riper ones, are now sitting on the kitchen windowsill.
And some are inhabiting a paper bag in the company of a ripe banana.

For Science and salads!

*Fat birds, that's what happens.
