Damage on Young Plant. A large tomato plant can survive damage better than a young plant, but even a small plant can recover from a broken upper stalk. If the stalk, or stem, is damaged under the lowest branch, however, the plant will not survive.
Cool soil temperatures affect the tomato plant negatively, especially if they persist for more than a week. Temperatures dipping below 55 degrees Fahrenheit stops both pollen production and overall plant growth. As a result, you see visible stunting to both foliage and fruits, if the plant produces fruits at all.
