I guess the answer is to move the plant to Ohio or New Jersey.

What do you say, NJBchbum?

i say amen to that! but even the tomatoes in jersey are late this year. don't know what's up with that! we are picking corn and peaches at the u-pick farms which we rarely used to do until august! i can hardly wait for my first fresh over-the-sink tomato sandwich! grower told me 2 to 3 weeks more...sheesh!

husband had a uncle who lived in florida and each time he came to visit family here he drove home with a trunk filled with bags of n.j. garden dirt for his tomato beds back there! since then i have always believed that there is a market for selling one product called just that - n.j. garden dirt and another called 'old fashioned n.j. water' in various size bottles; cause we all know how hard it is to find/make good italian bread and rolls in florida! thank goodness for brooklyn water bagels!
