How hot does it get where you live?
In Texas no one I know has ever had their tomatoes survive into August. Blight and the heat kill the plants usually by mid July. You can plant new ones around this time for a fall harvest if you want, but most home gardeners I talk to are pretty burnt out by this time of the season. The heat contributes to that too I'm sure :-)
- swiftcoder 2y agoProbably not as hot as Texas. Rarely goes above 105 F in summer here. Tomatoes seem to do ok at that temperature as long as I irrigate (drip irrigation at ground level specifically - tomato plants don't like getting their leaves wet)
