I have one tomatoe plant that is short and growing tomatoes granted they look like cherry tomatoes. I have another plant that keeps getting taller, but no tomatoes . I get flowers then they fall (repeat cycle or a storm comes in). So I'm not sure what's with that plant, but it keeps going up and up and wide. What am I doing wrong to it? The weird and strange part aboout it is that they are right next to each other. So what I do to one I usually do to the other. Please give me some advice it's need and wanted.
Thank you,
Nicky

I sit in my vegetable garden so that I can see them grow.

One I found out is a patio tomatoe plant that's the one that is growsing. The other one says early bird or something like that. I will have to check on it first thing in the AM and write it down to let you know tomorrow.

It is early girl (tomatoe plant). John, you think it is because of the hot weather? It keeps getting taller. Do I need to do anything to keep the to help it or leave it as is since how it's just the flowers everything else is nice and green and growing? Peppers are dying (I think I am over watering), but that plant (tomatoe) seems not to even be losing leaves after the storm the other day it stayed in tack. thank you, Nicky

You might even want to invest in some shade cloth so your plants don't over-heat. Depending where you are in Texas, it can really stress the plants and it can also be a challenge giving them enough water. If you don't already have a soaker hose, that might be a thought as well. It's much easier to irrigate deeply and evenly by using a soaker hose and you don't get the splash back onto the leaves, either. That can cause disease and can also burn the foliage if you water during the heat of the day. Also, mulch, mulch, mulch to retain that water. In Texas and other really hot places, cherry tomatoes and dwarf varieties do best because they seem to handle stress better. Your peppers like the heat, but like tomatoes, if it gets TOO hot or they wilt, they'll drop their blossoms and stop setting fruit. I'd talk to your local nursery people about the shade cloth.

Buona fortuna,
Julianna
