Not surprising in this summer heat wave.

Tomatoes need cool nights in order to set fruit.

If the night temperature is too high, the flowers will spontaneously abort
no matter what you do.

Hi all,

I hope some one here can help. I have a tomato plant (Japanese Triple
Black) and it's been putting out flowers...but after a couple weeks
the flowers shrivel up and die instead of producing fruit. I thought
tomatoes were self pollinating. No? What should I do to induce it to
produce fruit? The plant is very healthy otherwise. I've been giving
it 1-5-5 organic fert and kelp in small doses.

Thanks,

Layne
