Hey yall! I was wondering how I can care better for my tomato plant. The bottom leaves are browining even though i’ve fertilized it and it hasn’t gotten any bigger in the past 3 months i’ve had it. It also only has two flower buds and only recently budded. Any tips?

Well Mine is 12 feet tall and flowering a lot but not producing much fruit just one medium sized tomato that hasn’t grown anymore and a small one about the size of a blueberry started. He gets watered pretty much every day or every other day depending on heat (in north Florida) and he gets fertilizer dose for “heavy feeding” mixed per package instructions whenever planta recommends. Someone did recommend I cut him down so he puts more energy into fruit but now I kind of want to see how big he’ll get rather than how much fruit he’ll give me 😬
