how do I get more flowers?
I want more tomato flowers.
Of course, everyone probably does. But I don't think I have my fair share. My plants are green and healthy, so one idea is excess Nitrogen. What about other factors? Do I need more Phosphorous? Is the fact that I only get 5 hours of sunlight influencing (negatively) the number of flowers I am getting? Are there other factors? Attached is perhaps the most dramatic example in my garden: a great looking, 2 1/2 feet tall plant (Maltese) that has been in the ground for 4 weeks and maybe has one teeny truss that I can hardly see. Frustrating! |
