Blossom set in the heat.

Red Dirt Farmer · July 8, 2011

Blossom set hormones such as cytokynin are normally used in colder springs when the tomatoes or peppers have a drop problem due to cold nights.
Here in central Oklahoma, we are on our 19th day over 100 degrees. I planted late this year so my indys are only about 3 to 4-feet high so far but in good shape. No fruit set because of the high temps, so I spayed the blossoms with fruit set hormone.
My question is this: Will this work in the heat as well as cool temps?
