Just curious I am up and running and have been fishless cycling. My plants are very healthy everything is flowering but my tomatoes. I have some beans growing; squash starting to grow. Everything else doing fine. Tomatoes look very healthy, green, not leggy, but no flowers what gives? They are about foot tall.

Temp 75
Ammonia 0-.25 ppm
Nitrite 0 ppm
Nitrate 40 ppm
ph 7.6

Ready for fish (sounds like it to me)

Just concerned about tomatoes.....

I would give them a little more time to mature.... not sure what variety you have but it's very possible that they just haven't reaching the flowering stage as yet...

Could be a few different things; plants not old enough, temp not warm enough, not enough light, etc
