The last time I tried to consult this, the original site was gone. However, I've found it on the Wayback Machine, so here it is for your bookmarking:

This wonderful series of photographs shows the progression from tiny bud (day 0) to pollinated flower (day 12) -- and so on all the way to fully ripe fruit (day 57) ... and then the sad decline to rotten.

It's been offered on many threads to answer complaints like "Why aren't my tomatoes growing?" and "My tomatoes should have been ripe by now!"

As I understand it, Tomato Site was the product of a former member, Paul2101. I don't remember what else he had on his site, but I also had the main page bookmarked in the category I have for tomato databases and sites with good variety information.
