Tomatoe Blossoms Dying

[ninnymary]

This is the first time that I've noticed that a lot of my tomatoe blossoms are dying and not producing fruit. I've tried doing a search here on TEG but I get no results. I thought for sure that this problem has come up before.

The plants look healthy and have some tomatoes. Our temperatures have been pretty normal for our area, usually 67 degrees. We've had a couple of days when the temp was 80. There is always a slight breeze so I don't think pollination is a problem. With the flowers not setting fruit, my harvest is going to be really low. It is happening to both my heirlooms and early girls.

Sometimes some of my early blooms don't set. They turn brown and die. Then another batch of blooms come on and they take off producing tomatoes.

They will not set fruit in extreme heat or cool.

Cat, that's what I thought but we really don't have extreme temps here. Other than 1 day that got close to 80.

That would be extremely nice around here for the next couple of months.
