That plant looks too young to support/grow tomatoes.

I pinch off the flowers when the plant is young. Right now, you need to focus on green growth. Feed with nitrogen heavy fertilizer. First number. Miracle grow green box

Once the plant is established and healthy, feed with a fertilizer that is heavy in Phosphorus. (Second number) Miracle grow purple box for flowers.

Is it too late to start tomatoes? I've been so busy that I haven't had time to mess with the garden this year but I still want to get them in the ground.

When do I know it is ready for fruit? I have only put down osmocote and water.
