Cucumbers look great. Fashioned a trellis with scrap plastic chicken wire and thinned to 4 vines (i know, probably need to cut back to 2 but im committed now)
Tomatoes on the other hand…
Severely stunted from suspected 2,4 D or dicamba. So odd they are still flowering, but no sign of fruit. I am going to get new tomatoes and new soil and just keep these isolated to see what happens. Fo, you know, science.

If you cut back to 4, how many vines were in there?! 😂😂
Cukes look good now!
Tomato flower pollination can be assisted by jiggling the flowers / gently massaging the flowers
They look like maybe the need more sun but also just look like thick/ slicing variety which imo grow slower than thin viney cherry tomatoes
I dont see the problem with the tomato plants? get an electric toothbrush to assist pollination maybe.
I swear Ive seen sooo many tomatoes with what looks like herbicide injuries lately
Photo three. That definitely looks like herbicide damage 🙁
