Same location as before. It's been hot in Denver but protected plant during morning intense sun. Dad used Epsom salts. Tried earlier but no results. Cherry tomatoes starting to turn brown. Inspected leaves for bugs not finding mites or white flies. They are in a different spot facing south, getting afternoon sun while the others getting morning sun. Both are in "Earth Boxes" with water coming from space under soil. Any ideas? Growing season coming to end here in Denver.
If you are getting flowers but no fruit, really the only issue is pollination. Because of the high heat in much of the country this season, this can sometimes make pollinators a little lazier than they should be. Therefore, you may need to hand pollinate to make up for it.

Why are yellow blossoms to my cherry tomatoes falling off prematurely?
When the tomato buds fall off without fruiting, this is a sign of a pollination problem. These articles will help:

Help with Science Fair project (due Monday, December 10).
Unfortunately, we cannot give you the answer, as it's a school project. It;s better for you to research the answer for yourself. However, we can provide you with some growing info for these tomatoes that may be of some help to you: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/edible/vegetables/tomato/growing-cherry-tomatoes.htm
While it is true that growing plants can be quite scientific, there are too many variables to give a 'real' answer. Differences between temperatures, fertilizer, moisture, light, soil, varieties, and the list goes on and on, make it impossible to answer your question.
Finally the weather has gotten nice in NJ. Planted cherry tomato in a five gallon pot and grape tomato in the dirt a couple of days ago.
My question is, will I still be getting cherry tomatoes from the potted plant when I move it indoors for the fall and winter?
First time I planted tomatoes. I'm excited.
thanks
Stephen
Probably not, but anything is possible. This article will help with growing tomatoes indoors: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/edible/vegetables/tomato/growing-indoor-tomatoes.htm
I have a grape tomato plant in the ground can I transplant that into a pot? also was reading on topping off the plant can I do that at anytime after 3-4 feet, or does it have to be one month before frost? and can I clip the head at any spot on the main stalk ?
thanks

I want to have currant tomato seeds to plant in my garden in Nigeria. Where do I get seeds?
There are many online sites selling tomato seed. Enter "buy currant tomato seed" into a search engine.
I have a heated greenhouse, and this is my first year growing plants in it. My cherry tomato plants' leaves are turning yellow. I have roma and beefsteak tomatoes growing also but so far they are doing great. There is fruit on the cherry tomato plants, still blooms and producing fruit.
There are a number of reasons for leaf yellowing in tomatoes. This article should help with pinpointing and correcting the cause of yours: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/edible/vegetables/tomato/yellow-tomato-leaves.htm
I live in California, San Bernardino County. I would like to know when to start my garden. I am planning on planting cherry tomatoes, zucchini.
It really depends on the plant, but the general rule of thumb is 4-6 weeks before your last frost date. In your area, it should getting close to planting time, especially if starting seeds indoors.
