i moved to the city last fall my first time living in the city i must say. i planted 4 tomato plants on the east side of my apt. building the only place i had to plant them they only get about 6 hours of sun a day. when the first blooms showed up they all produced tomato's after that as soon as i was expecting the next round. as soon as the next blooms started to make fruit they fall off. i don't thing its a bug problem.
A garden experts out there? having trouble with my tomato plants ??
Location ! You need a lot more sun ,what about your balcony do you get more sun there ? if yes put them into a pot next year.
Reply:Tomatoes are greedy feeders. So keep them well fertilized.
Reply:I had the same problem with my tomato plant and I went and got some tomato bloom spray at walmart and now I am getting tomato's, alot of them. Try it, it might help.
Reply:Try two things, Sprinkle Epsom salts at the base of the plant and get some root stimulator from Lowes garden section. it's about $10.00 a gallon and you will be hooked for life, I used it on my last garden and had tomatoes from july through december off the same plant and still had some freeze on the plant. Epsom salts make the stalks get really large so more nutrients goes through the plant root stimulator make more roots which helps the plant gather more food.
