The yield of cherry tomatoes has still been increasing. However, the tomato plants growing in the heated room during winter passed their peak of development.

As you see in the picture above, leaves are losing color and dying though the fruits are becoming red. The spider mites have decreased, as the tomato plants still had strength. Almost all of the plants’ leaves have died, but they still had a lot of green fruit, which were turning red. What was different than before was that the color of the tomatoes looked darker. The fruit have been growing.

Overall, it is obvious that the plants got skinnier. They absorbed water slowly. Actually, it looked as if they hadn’t absorbed water at all.

By contrast, the tomato plants in the picture above were still vigorous. They grew over the same period as the plants in the previous picture, but these plants grew in the unheated room during the cold season. They have grown slowly, but looked strong and are colored rich green, as you can see.
