Title: Tomatoes and Trusses Question
Post by: Sigsy on July 02, 2007, 16:35:21
Hello again,

This is probably a really silly question if you already know the answer, but..

I have lots of trusses now with lots of flowers
Nearly all of the flower heads have fallen off the bottom trusses and I have maybe 4 small marble sized Toms on 4 different plants,
The other flowers just have a pin head sized tiny tomato, the 4 are getting bigger but the other tiny ones don't seem to be getting bigger at?

Is this usual?  I expected to see a truss with lots of small, but noticable tomatoes

Or am I being too hasty?

This is my first time growing Toms so I dont really know what to expect.

give it a couple of weeks, sigsy, you'll have lots of small, bigger and big tomatoes, shows they've been pollinated, having tiny ones  :)
are you feeding them, now, they need a bit of strength to build 'em up  ;D

Ahh, great!

Yeah I'm feeding them Tomorite once a week, although I was thinking of stepping it up to twice a week
