All the flowers have dropped off my tomato plants!?

All that is left is the stalk. What has gone wrong??

All the flowers have dropped off my tomato plants!?
Here are some other causes:



Cold nights

High temps

Low light

Smog



I am in East TN and my tomatoes are setting fine in 90 degree weather. They get morning direct sunlight.



Good luck! There is nothing like a great home grown tomato!
Reply:Maybe too much water. Many times when it gets hot we tend to over water. I am guilty of this. My greenhouse guy told me that if the flowers look as if they are breaking and no fruit sets then I am giving them too much water. I have been holding back on the water this year and have not had any problems with the flowers setting fruit. I'm in zone 6.
Reply:Too hot.

Where are you?

Tomato plants in Texas have to have fruit set by now for production this month, none later in summer.
Reply:Depending on where you live, it may just be too hot. I live in FL and its hot here and we are getting towards the end of our crop.

They need an acidic soil and keep them watered.
Reply:sounds like you have deer in the area who like to munch.
Reply:Tomato plants needs to be watered often to keep them alive, plant some more and look after them.
Reply:it is too hot this happened to me recently and i live down south try planting them early in the spring or in the fall depending on where you live
