Question by kar3b3ar93: Tomato plant has no fruit and is dying!!!?
My tomato plant is yellow and wilting. no fruit is coming anymore and last week there were two tomatoes but they had a single thumbsized hole and had ants inside. i think it mightve been a bird. but i don’t know about the wilting. the top is yelow and the bottom is green but it is wilting. i live in AZ but we water it a bit everyday in the early morning or when the sun goes down. the weather has been really nice, not higher than 100 dgrees at noon and an average of about 80ish degrees the rest of the day. it is really weird to me because we have cherry tomatoes right next to the plant and those are fine. So is our mint and peppers and everything… what could be wrong?

Give it more water – but don’t drown it. Maybe AZ is too hot to grow tomatoes outside. THey like sun, but AZ sun might e too hot.

have you tryed using pesticides and compost if you have you could try digging it up and potting it and put it in a more cooler area where there is more shade
The only reason I ever had no fruit on my tomato plants is because of horse manure. I learned from a Polish Holocaust survivor that something about horse manure makes lots of leaves, but no fruit.
As for the yellow, it could be a fungus. Cherry tomatoes are pretty hearty and will probably survive the next ice age, which could explain why they haven’t been affected. Neem oil diluted in a sprayer is good for all kinds of fungi. Tomatoes prefer heat, moreso than sun. So your weather is probably fine.
Like another person said, good compost is extremely useful here. If all this fails look up Gardens Alive or the Invisible Gardener online. Both have excellent resources and solutions for the most difficult of problems.
Tomatoes like sun and airflow. When a tomato starts to grow. cut the leaves off around it. Leaves take up nourishment.
First, Gently, now, shake the plants and drop them on the ground.
Baby powder under the plants will get rid of the ants.
See if some shiny alumnium pie pans will scare the birds or some rubber snakes. Or make a scarecrow.
Water them real good. Let the water get to their roots.
The sun there could not be hotter than Texas.
