Growing Tomatoes-My Garden Tomatoes Are Plentiful, But Still Green.
The month of June has had lower temperatures and increased rainfall. Tomatoes like warmer weather. Colder temperatures cause the plants metabolism to slow and which in turn slows growth.
Since I started with soil full of rich composted material, my tomatoes are looking better than I would have thought. My father’s tomato plants were planted about two weeks before mine, and are about a foot shorter and still don’t have any tomatoes over the size of a golf ball.
This is just another example of how rich composted soil and full sun can increase your yields even during tough growing months. Hopefully the good weather stays, and I will be picking tomatoes in about two weeks.
