Response to Tomato plants

It sounds like your plants got hit with frost. I dont know where you live but in Pa. where I live You shouldn't plant before the may 15. I know it isn't much help, depending on how big they are cut the bottom out of a 1 gallon milkjug and sit that over the top of them.

See the (just) earlier thread entitled "tomatoe question (what is causing them to die?) (2001-05-28)".
