They are around 2 foot in height and the first truss has about hit the deck. I planted them in well manured soil. I have not been giving them any food as yet as I want them to be organic. They are not in the green house but the tempreture is around 30 during the day and 15-20 at night.
Good healthy plants otherwise.
Tomato Plants !!! Why do my flower heads keep falling of before they turn to tomatoes ?
Not enough pollination? Too much wind? I don't think it has anything to do with the soil otherwise you'd see discoloration or blossom rot before they fell off. Check out this message board post:

Reply:first they need feeding or they will not produce fruit, you can buy organic fertiliser, secondly you can pollunate by hand this means just when you pass by tap they flowers so they release a little pollen, or take a small paint brush and rub the pollen from one flower to another this is the job the bees would normally do for you good luck I am sure this will work for you
Reply:Since it is so cold, there are probably no bees to polinate them, therefore the flower is falling off before it turns into fruit.
Reply:Spray the flower to set the pollen.
Reply:to cold for them....
