Why won't my tomatoes produce?

Question

My tomato plants will bloom but won't produce tomatoes.

Answer 1

When it is too hot in the daytime or too cool in the night (probably not the problem this time of year), the pollen in the flower is not viable and tomatoes will not form.  When it cools off a bit you will probably have better luck.  Too much nitrogen is sometimes a problem also if you may have over-fertilized.

Answer 2

Are there enough insects to pollinate them?  If not you can do it with a tiny children's paint brush.  Also make sure that the plants are well watered and fertilized.

Answer 3

If it's over about 90F for long periods they can't pollinate, so that may be the culprit. The only cure here is to wait or cooler temperatures. You might also be watering too much and/or have too much nitrogen in the soil, which will cause lush growth but no fruit.

There is a product on the market called (I think) Blossom Set Spray, you could give it a try, although I think it works best when the weather is cool.  

Answer 4

Tomatoes are temperature tempremental.  If the temperature is either above or below their range they won't set fruit. Once it gets to the high 90's they quit producing.

Answer 5

buy some miracle grow for veggies you will soon see results
