Tomato blooms dry up and drop because of nutrient deficiency or excess heat, move the tomatoes to shade if they are in a container, if in ground put a green shade cloth over them, for further knowledge visit this thread.

Tomatoes flowers will die and never produce fruit due to Nutrients deficiency epecially main deficiency of Phosporous and Potassium. Apply floar spray of liquid only having P and K nutrients only.

Due to the rising temperatures the tomato is slowly moving towards its end, so it is no use growing it anymore because it will barely survive, plant new tomato seedlings or seeds in the mid of August, the right time for growing tomatoes in the potohar region

Tomato needs moderate temperatures to grow along with some humidity, mid of August in that case is the best time. You can still grow tomatoes all year around in a green house where the tomato plants... the indeterminate ones will become perennial and will fruit for year or more.
