Tomato

Trying tomato plants for the first time. It is just starting to flower...

16July2020: Today's pic...

17 Aug2020: Most flowers have bloomed and then died out. Only about 2 or 3 have turned into a fruit. 

Also lots of branches are turning brown and dying off.

28Aug2020: Today one good sign, I think. It looks like a new plant might be growing...

7Sep2020: The fruit is changing colour.
It's struggling. The plant is heavily damaged by something, I dunno what. I am praying for just one fruit to survive to maturity so that we can taste it.

9Sep2020: It's red!


I'm more at ease now, the weight is off! Now I can focus on fixing the problems it had. 

I have been adding coffee to the soil coz it likes higher acidity. Also I am spraying neem water (not oil) every 2 days or so, to see if it has an effect on the dying leaves and branches.
