Many gardeners have been puzzled by the sudden wilting and death of tomato plants. Possible causes of wilting include lack of water, vascular wilts, tomato spotted wilt virus, walnut toxicity, or stalk borers. Tomato plants require approximately 1 inch of water per week.
Too much nitrogen and water can stimulate a lot of leafy growth, but few blossoms. Heat can cause blossom drop as well. Tomato blossoms drop off without setting fruit when night temperatures fall below 55 degrees or day temperatures exceed 90 degrees for extended periods.
