May I ask what zone you are in? My tomato yields have been terrible this year in 6a.

5a here and the yield is ridiculous, biggest beefsteak so far weights 860g

That's just a couple of them, there's a whole lot more, we started selling them because we didn't know what to do with so many (not enough time)

I'm in 7a. Rhode Island Massachusetts border.

What exactly are they doing? Are blossoms setting but not fruiting? No blossoms? Green fruit not ripening? Growing tomatoes is my favorite summer pass time and I'm in the same zone, maybe I can offer some assistance?

Green but not ripening. All that has changed in the last few days! What’s your sauce recipe?

Ha ha ha, I'm not the OP. My sauce recipe is whatever I find on the internet, I'm more into growing them than eating them lol

What have your daily afternoon temps been? High 80s into the 90s? Are your plants in full sun during the hottest parts of the day?
