[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The flowers have to get pollinated. Have you seen bees around your garden? If not, you can shake the flowers to get the pollen to where it needs to go, or you can use a paintbrush. Also, some tomatoes need to have their flowers pollinated before it gets too hot. It may just be too late and too hot now in the season for some tomatoes to start setting fruit. There are also many diseases and pests that can befall the tomato plant. Folks at gardenweb can tell you all you need to know: http://forums.gardenweb.com/forums/tomato/[/quote] I have not seen a ton of bees lately, but my cherry tomatoes are doing well, so there must have been some bees around. I'm going to try the paint brush method. I just hope I'm not too late. p.s. my neighbor uses mosquito squad -- I'm not sure if that would affect the bee population or not. [/quote]
