Nice looking tomatoes. Where are you located ?

This past year was the worst tomato year I've ever had. Here in Oklahoma City, we had a very hot dry summer. In a normal year, my plants start setting fruit in early May and producing tomatoes in June. After the 4th of July, temps get to mid 90's and they shut down. So I got a set window.

And last year, it got really hot in May, temps over 90 and June was hotter than normal and my production went way down. And I'd planted more plants than I've ever done, had 27 plants.

I'm already planning next year's garden.

Bad year in Ohio too. Many just failed to root well and then lost during hot July. Of those that survived, a lot of fruit but very small. Bad year in Ohio all around. I have a friend who farms commercially and soy beam yields were way down.
Managed to can salsa pints with my friends.

east of Flint, Michigan.
everything in the two beds did really well.
in planters.... not so much.
planting non frost resistant plants is historically Memorial Day weekend here.
