What the tomatoes taught me this year
Three varieties went in this year. Here's how they did:
| Variety | Planted | First ripe | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gardener's Delight | April | July | Grow again |
| San Marzano | April | August | Worth it for sauce |
| Black Krim | May | September | Too late for our summer |
For next spring
- Start seeds two weeks earlier.
- Fewer plants, more space between them.
- Mulch before the first heat, not after.
