That one your have to wait again and see, it may be just slower growing back. Any canes that show no signs of life after a reasonable about of time are dead. Cut them out.

I appreciate the comments. What I'm really trying to figure out is why my largest tomato plants always produce bland tomatoes, while my smaller plants produce flavorful tomatoes. I have several theories, which I'm going to explore this year. In my garden (picture below), my tomatoes are planted along the back, and beets, onions, squash, etc., are planted along the front. I turn off the irrigation lines to the tomatoes once they start setting fruit, but the front side of the garden still gets watered. Theory #1: My largest tomatoes also have the largest root system, and they're running over to the front side of the garden where ample water is available, thus producing watery tomatoes. To test this theory, I plan on running a spade down the middle of my garden a few times this summer to prune any roots that are running across. Theory #2: The roots of my largest tomatoes also run deeper, to the bottom of my raised bed where there is a layer of hard packed clay. Perhaps rainwater is collecting there, and the bigger tomato plants draw up more of this water. To test this theory, I plan on putting my tomatoes out later this year, without the help of season extenders, so the plants don't have as much time to develop deep roots. Theory #3: (could apply to anyone's garden) Larger tomato plants have more self-shading than smaller plants, meaning there's less sugar available per tomato. I'm going to prune my tomatoes this year to 2 or 3 stems, to open things up and get more sun on the leaves. Theory #4: Some other stress factor is responsible for the smaller tomato plants being smaller, and those stressful conditions produce better tasting tomatoes. I'm going to try watering a couple times this summer with diluted seawater. I bought some Sea-90 from seaagri.com, to see if a little sea salt on the roots will stress the plants just enough to slow their growth and produce more concentrated, flavorful tomatoes. This picture of my garden was taken the first week of July. The 2 right-most tomatoes were started under a cold frame, and turned into monsters with bland tomatoes. The two staked tomatoes in the middle were put out later, grew comparatively smaller, but had much better flavor.

Hello Patrick, How long since you transplanted your Celebrity tomatoes? They are determinate which means they will set a majority of their tomatoes within a short time frame. (Good for "putting up".) They are listed as a mid-season or about 70 Days to Maturity from transplant. But as several others have mentioned, to be able to tell you why you have no tomatoes yet, we need to know a few things: Are they in the ground or in containers? How often are you fertilizing them and what are you using when you do? (NPK balance) As Dave indicated, too much nitrogen is a common reason for healthy looking plants with no fruit. What is your watering schedule? Has it been very hot where you are (a common cause of blossom drop)? Info! We need more info! We also see that you are in California, and that covers a lot of territory garden zone wise (from some Zone 5 in the north to 10's in the south), do you know what zone you are in? It would be helpful if you add it to your signature. I have "z5A ID" so that if I ask a question, someone will have a better idea of what the growing conditions are where I am.

Hopefully this is the one you got. Made for containers. ((Nandina, I am a sucker for new and unusual products but I really dislike that her website doesn't say what it is made of or what the NPK is. I can read testimonials but I want to know what is the product make-up behind all the hoopla before I purchase it. If you go to Messenger site it says it is harpin protein etc.--I can research that and make a decision. I looked it up on Wash. State site, very,very low NPK but doesn't give source. I don't care if it is the hair of a yak from Mongolia --I may try it if enough people were raving about it but a company should say what are the components of the product.))
