I removed a spent flower and found this tomato underneath. It almost looks like twins to me, but I don't know. What's going on? #TomatoPlant #newplantmom #newgrowth #help #diagnose #diagnosemyplant #plantcorner #greggang

How in the world do you do tomato plants? These are cherry tomato plants. The wimpy looking thin one is in Indiana soil. (Lots of clay) Do I have to prune/give structure? 2 plants/pot. Also, they're curling a lot. #TomatoPlant #newplantmom #help

Holy Cow I leave for 1 week on a trip and my tomato plant was doing great. I come back and I notice this on a few of its leaves. Tell me this is not some weird disease. I’ve had someone water it while I was out too!

Have a new tomato plant that had a bunch of small cherry tomatoes on it. Just put it in our green house and it is a little droopy. Is that normal from the move? #TomatoPlant

why is my tomato so small? i have a tomato plant in my backyard. the first time i saw a tomato, the tomato was really small, and it was already red. i thought i should let it get bigger, but after a couple of days it went bad. a new tomato grew and it was even smaller, but i decided i should pick it off when its red. this isn’t a cherry or grape tomato plant, and cherry or grape tomatoes have different shapes. is this normal? what should i do?
