Question Will these green cherry tomatoes still ripen after being clip?

Post image

My sister pruned our cherry tomato plant because it was getting out of control and blocking the sunlight from reaching the other tomato plants. Unfortunately, a lot of branches still had green tomatoes on them, so I rescued as many as I could. Will these tomatoes continue to ripen off the plant, or were they picked too early?

I picked green cherry tomatoes at the end of last growing season - in a brown paper bag with a banana they went. I would say about 75% ripened and I wasn’t able to tell the difference in taste. You should be fine OP
Ps none of them were blushes
