Default Tomatoes

I have 5 tomatoe plants in the greenhouse. Two of which have only grown about 2 foot tall, the other three are around 4 feet tall. The two smaller ones have tomatoes on but, the three larger ones only have flowers, no tomatoes at all. I feed them twice a week and water them every day. They are all in grow bags.

Any ideas as to why is there only two that have tomatoes on them

Interesting story I suggest you to wait for few days and see the final result. I too planted two of dal plants and one was long while the other was short, but the short one grown into longer due to poor maintain.

I have loads of Tomatoes but not a single one looking like turning green, the majority have been a good size for 5+ weeks, we've had lots of sun but they do not seem to want to ripen, nor do any of my neighbours
