Just after easter I planted Better Boy tomato plants, or at least what was surposed to be Better Boy, I have my doubts. That, however isn't the problem. My problem is that, although at first many tomatoes grew to a nice size and ripened up well they suddenly stopped ripening. The plants also stopped producing blooms for awhile. I thought the bloom problem might have been caused by the extreme heat we had for a couple of weeks. A few days ago the plants started to bloom again and have some new tomatoes coming on them. So the problem now is still that the seemingly mature tomatoes won't ripen. There are some other people in this area having the same problem. Any help or information would be appreciated.
