Tomatoes ripen from the inside out, so you can actually pick when orange. But depends on weather, watch when its cold at night it takes longer.

Be patient, it will happen. You can tell by feeling the fruit. Unripe is hard, ripe the surface gives a little but is firm, over ripe the fruit gets soft. Not all tomatoes turn red. Various colors include yellow, purple, black, orange and green.
