I honestly don't know. I think that if the soil is too acidic they wont
grow at all. Most of your garden plants need an acidic soil. There are a
few fruits and flowers that need even more. If you get soil that is too
alkaline, you wont grow much but weeds. However, I dont know how much is
"too" much. Have you had a pH test done on your soil? That is where I
would start and then see at what pH your tomatoes perform the best. Then
you can raise or lower as required.

Do some research and buy one that is less acidic. If you try to can
them,
though, you may have to adjust the pH or they will spoil if you don't
use
a
pressure cooker.

Is there nothing to do to the soil etc.? Not necessarily this year but in
the future?
