See how beefsteak tomatoes continue to ripen beautifully after picking, with no loss of flavour. These were harvested slightly green from my no dig greenhouse at Homeacres and are fully ripe within days.

I show you how they colour up over time, share tips on avoiding issues like sunscald, and cut open a pink oxheart variety to show the juicy texture and flavour – all grown in the same soil for 13 years with just 4 cm of composted cow manure, plus a bit of dry seaweed meal from betterplants.ie.

Varieties featured: Sonnenherz oxheart, Beefmaster F1, and Rose de Berne.
