I’ve had my new tomato plants in the ground for 3 weeks. I did have to cover them last weekend for possible frost.
But by mid to late June while you are enjoying nice weather we’ll be hitting highs near or over 100 and no rain and those same plants will be withering.
We had a relatively mild winter. Did drop to near single digits in Dec and mid teens in Jan but otherwise not much. Only 21 total freezes which is much below average. But had a hotter and drier than average last summer with 47 days over 100 and little rain July thru October. Hope we don’t have a repeat.
