Unusual season!!!!

Elliot · October 4, 2010

I live in Long Island which is Southern New york. I cannot figure out what happened to my plants this year. I can't complain. We had lots of tomatoes in the mid season but it is still warm out and all of my plants are turning yellow and there are no green tomatoes left on the branches and no new flowers. Normally before the first frost i would have bags of green tomatoes that we use to pickle or fry. Not this year.

My only theory is that it was so hot in this area that that the plants stopped germinating. It does not look like the blight of 2009. Now all of my plants are indeterminate. I should still be seeing growth and new fruit forming.

Any ideas?
