If your tomato plants are covered in flowers but you’re still not seeing fruit, you’re probably wondering what in the world is going on! The flowers are there and the plant looks healthy, but those little tomatoes just aren’t forming.
In this video, I’m sharing the 3 critical problems that stop tomato flowers from turning into fruit:
✔️Heat Stress: Learn why 90°F+ days are causing your blossoms to drop and how to save them.
✔️The Pollination Trick: See how a simple “wiggle” can do the job the bees might be missing.
✔️The Nitrogen Trap: Why your lush, green plant might be working against you and how to fix your fertilizer routine.

OMG!! I absolutely love this tomato tickle!! 🍅
Would using my calmag help my tomatoes??
Omg! I LOVE THE TOMATO TICKLE 🍅 🤣 Great info.. Thanks!
For some reason my indeterminate tomatoes have tomatoes growing but my indeterminate ones are big and bushy with lot of leaves but no flowers or fruit. I don’t get it.
I tried one last year called “Geranium Kiss”. It is a multiflora variety, which I had not heard of before. It’s very top heavy on blooms. Hundreds of blooms on a 2.5 foot plant all at the top. It was really neat, but you know that small plant can’t really support 100+ tomatoes. Golf ball sized, low seeds, paste like tomatoes. I put in several of those plants this year too. Well 4 of them organic and 1 hydroponic as a test.
