No Flowering from mine yet as they were just planted a few weeks ago. Where have you got the tomato plants. If in a greenhouse is, is it heated? If you have them on a sunny windowsill make sure you remove them at night as the glasss will retain the cold and if they are shut in between the glass and the drapes they wont have any chance at all. Keep them warm, give them as much light as possible and you will probably be fine. Let us know how you get on.
And when your back stops aching,
And your hands begin to harden.
You will find yourself a partner,
In the glory of the garden.

I haven't got any flowering yet, but you could try either putting them in a green house (if you have one, if not ask friends if they have one and ask them if you could put your tomatoes in it) or put them inside on a window sill.

Just tickling my toms tonight before I go to bed; and a flower came off and my first tomato is out - only about 2mm diameter at the moment but there you go.
Off to Amsterdam tomorrow at 5am so decided to pop some tomorite in for the weekend; to give it a boost. Just hope it was fertilised ok and grows ok.
So chuffed; but also worried as it is taking over the kitchen window; will have to relocate when we get back.
Have a great weekend everyone.

Just got the first flower showing yellow on one of my four Tumbling Toms, which are in the conservatory at night and then in my Little Girls' Greenhouse on warm sunny days.
It's a good idea to keep tom plants at a minimum of 10 degrees if you can (so says Terry Marshall, Tomato Expert, in his book)
Good Luck Everyone!Comment
