Me, too. Got a few happy lil' campers. Hope they maintain their "cool"
through the summer. Because our beach community gets marine layer, at least
through "May gray" and "June gloom", tomatoes don't always do well.

I've had good years and bad years and terrific years.

Sometimes I wonder why I bother. In summer, good US tomatoes are cheap and
abundant, esp. at the farmers markets. In winter, when I yearn for them, can
only get Mexican ones (fertilized with the stuff we sell them because it's
illegal up here) Go figure!

What stuff is illegal here that fertilizes tomatoes there?
