The Tomato of the Sloths
I do not know if the idea will suit you but there are lots of interesting interventions on tomatoes scattered in just as many posts scattered in just as many subjects ....
So if we are looking for info on tomatoes .... uh it's complicated and it's DAMAGE considering the richness of all this unfortunately scattered content
In my opinion it could be practical to have a subject per vegetable ... with references, experiences, knowledge of each ...
To start ... the very interesting link provided by Didier: Influence of Temperature on Tomato Culture
http://www.tomatofifou.fr/culture/cultu ... emperature
And, whatever we may think, we can also indicate the site of Pascal Poot

Very practical question
We have lots of flowers on the tomatoes but will all the flowers give fruit?
It seems to me that no, but I do not know in what percentage ....

In theory yes, but it seems to me that fruit set occurs only if the soil is above a certain temperature, otherwise the flower aborts.

Are you sure it's the temperature of the ground ??? It plays on the growth of the roots and the development of the plants, that's for sure: my tomatoes planted early have stagnated and vegetated for almost 2 months, with leaves that turn blue, a sign of a phosphorus deficiency, itself a sign roots that do not explore because they do not grow ... The tomato is, from this point of view, to be considered as a "tropical" plant which needs a warm soil ... Indirectly, of course , the lack of development will result in a delay in flowering. But about the rate of flowers which fertilize, I don't know?
Conversely, above a certain temperature air, fertilization no longer takes place: it is difficult to grow tomatoes in tropical conditions. The day / night temperature alternation plays a role. When the temperature is high and fairly stable, it plummets (I had experienced this in Chad, where production was only good in "cool" seasons - this corresponds, in central Chad to + 30 ° in the shade. during the day and another 10 to 15 at night! -; I observed this during the heatwave in my greenhouse, which was then close to 50 °).
Of course, foragers play a role: in intensive cultivation in greenhouses, bumblebees are introduced. The suspended threads are "shaken" by shakers to promote self-fertilization: the pollen falls on the pistil in the leaf (it would seem that these "shakes" are one of the effective roles of bumblebees!)

Hi Chris from Corsica ,
- In a car, it is not "in the shade"!
-What to do for your tomatoes? Wait for them to grow, tie them up so that they do not touch the ground, cut the gourmands, although we can leave a few that will make branches, but if we let all the tomatoes grow we risk finishing the season with lots of unripe tomatoes. In general I cut the tips of the branches after the first or second bouquet of flowers, and some market gardeners cut the head of the plant after the 5th or 6th bouquet to ensure the ripening of the tomatoes already formed. (it depends on the climate, here in Switzerland the end of the season comes quickly).
A photo of the day.
