When Do Tomatillos Fruit?

Tomatillo plants tend to grow in height and produce a lot of leaves before they start producing flowers and fruits. You can expect the fruits to start maturing in 75 to 100 days. Once they do start setting fruits, the plants will remain productive until frost.

Why are my tomatillos not fruiting?

That usually means too little sun/light exposure for the plant. it can also affect fruit set. Other possible issues as discussed in the FAQ on Blossom Drop here are excess N fertilizer (happy plants but no fruit set) and high humidity (especially in combination with high day time temps).

What month do you harvest tomatillos?

Harvesting tomatillo fruits is best done in the morning from midsummer well into fall. To know when to pick a tomatillo, watch the husk on the outside. The plant produces papery shells and the fruit grows to fill the husk. As soon as the dry exterior splits, it is time for tomatillo harvesting.
