Hello Tailgater. Don't water your tomatoe plants if you want tomatoes to ripen more quickly. Tomatoes don't like to be watered in generally - they have deep root system and can deal with medium dry periods. I found this tip about watering tomatoes here: growing tomatoes if you are interested. Good luck
