"maters"
Have been monitoring the tomatoes since early spring when they sprung. Not
alot to talk about. Heat seems to have restricted any reasonable reproduction. Except for first flowering, with small results and small maters. Now since that low cell almost a month ago produced some reasonable rain, and lengthy cloud cover; have at least 3 dozen fruit and more flowers continually coming. Intermittent rain since. And lower temps. The first fruit, same small size seems to be ripening on the vine. Later fruit is green and continues to grow. Green growth, meaning branching and consequential leaves are doing well. Been thinking about transconductance. Meaning, the heat conduction of the soil from external sources such as sunlight and air temperature. My observations lead me to think that possibly that the soil type around my raised garden area is subject to soil temps of the entire soil area. And, as a consequence, affecting the growth of anything planted there. As a result, whether the garden is raised, and provided suitable soil is of no consequence if the surrounding soil temp is too hot. Comments? -- Jonny |
