Just an observation

dipchip2000 · June 29, 2013

I also have more fruit set this season than in any years past. Yes I am using the TTF and the temps have been in the mid 90s for a while for daytime highs and cooling only to mid to high 70s at night. There has not been much wind here so I am using my leaf blower daily on the tomato plants to create my own wind. I don't know if this is a reason for extra fruit set or just a coincidence. I guess it really doesn't matter as it sure isn't hurting anything. Has anyone else ever tried this and what was your results?

That is an awesome idea, if it works. Much less "crazy" than tickling my plants with a toothbrush, if nothing else.
