Are my tomatoes going to make it?

We got hit by a pretty big hail storm a couple weeks ago. The leaves on the bottom started to die off. It seems like there’s some healthy leaves toward the top but I’m worried the bottom won’t survive. Is there anything I can do?

Ohh it’s hail! I looked at the picture before I read and I was thinking blight. I think it’s going to survive. There’s still plenty of hot summer left. Cut off the dead stuff, give a good dose of fertilizer and keep it watered. Looks like it’s watered now so I think ya it’s going to be fine.

I always said tomato and basil are the basis of Italian cooking because if all else dies, they will always survive.

Fertalizer for tomatoes, water appropriately (don't over water, but don't let them go fully dry) and let them be.

Tomatoes are strong plants.

They did! I may have to reinforce the top somehow because it got really tall but it’s looking good now!
