What a great photo

First time growing by myself. Had bought plants at the nursery. And didn't realize that this has three separate tomato plants. The other ones I have are fine. Like a fool I just assumed that this one was a little busier than the other cherry tomatoes.

I'm conflicted on what I should do now. Each plant has tomatoes growing. It's in a 5 gallon pot. What do I do here? Just let all three grow since they're already producing tomatoes?

I've had this for about 1 month now since I purchased it. I'm located in zone 9a/9b. And this thing just refuses to grow. I see plenty of flowers but they tend to either fall off once they bloom or they shrivel up into something really small and then fall off. I'm a little concerned about maybe root rot? It's been fairly damp so I've gone a few days without watering now. The top layer of soil is now fairly dry from the hot heat here in the high desert. But I would say maybe about an inch or too deep it does get somewhat damp. Soil meter is reading at about 3 on all sides after about an inch. And today I noticed the smallest Branch sort of wilting to the side.

I am at my wit's end with this ghost pepper. My tomatoes and other peppers are growing fine and great. But this thing has been a pain in my ass!!!! Help!
