The flower becomes a tomato, because of pollination, and because of the proper environmental conditions for fruit to set. These conditions include air/soil temperature ranges, and soil moisture and nutrient levels. For example, night-time air temperatures may range between 60-70 degrees F, day-time 70-85 degrees F. Spreading a couple of inches of mulch around tomato plants evens out soil moisture and temperature extremes. In terms of nutrients, too much nitrogen causes lush vegetative growth at the expense of flower and fruit. Phosphorus [the P of NPK fertilizers] supports seeding, rooting, fruiting, and flowering in plants.
