But I can't complain as I've still harvested all the tomatoes than my friends and I can eat.

Are they lacking something. It rained here quite hard for about a week. Could they have root rot or a disease? Please help.

Where are you located? Did you purchase tomato transplants or start them from seed? Try to have your tomato transplants ready to go into the garden as soon as the weather warms and the threat of frost has passed, especially if you have a short growing season.

However my tomato plants didn't do well. They grew fine and bloomed but the tomatoes stayed green and never ripened. What went wrong? Thank you Mike Hi,
