# I have a tomato plant that I pruned up really well and it’s growing…

_Posted by Spenser leigh on 2023-07-13_

I have a tomato plant that I pruned up really well and it’s growing beautifully again and produced new flowers. However it’s really hot right now in Florida and I was told they won’t produce because it’s consistently too hot so I was wondering, what if I bring it inside where it’s 72 degrees from say, noon to five? Would that help the blooms actually become fruit? The flowers and the plant overall look very healthy.

You can try that but the trick is tomatoes need a ton of light. Light from windows will not be enough.

I’m having the same problem here in north east Florida. My tomato plant is 12 feet tall and has tons of flowers but only one tomato that’s green and about the size of a large egg but just stopped growing 🥺

Im in north east Florida too!! I was thinking maybe a grow light? Amazon has some relatively inexpensive ones

This heat is unlike any other year I’ve experienced
