: hi can any one help ?
:
: my tomatoes are 5ft high ,stems are like matchsticks, lots of flowers droping off,no tomatoes growing .
: whats wrong plz help!!!!!!

: Hi Nicky i have the same problem, i dont know whats up, i even been feeding them. I dont know where you live, i live in West Virginia and i thought it might have been from the nursery that i got them , maybe it was just poor quailty , but i got some from our walmart to and their the same to. The only thing i can think of is the weather, being dry and all that , although i did water them alot. Maybe i watered them too much and with the humity they thought they were living in the tropics and go all crazy. My plants havent gave a lot of tomatoes either. more vine than anything. I know that i wasnt any help to you , but i wanted you to know that your not the only one with this problem , Maybe we will have a better year next,,, year, but i kinda lean to the fact that it is the quailty of the seed or plants that the nurserys started with this year. sorry i didnt help, just wanted to let you know you werent alone Linda Lou
