- As much as I love tomatoes, I sure don't know much about them! Maybe that's why they didn't grow well for me last summer

- I wish you much luck. Just don't plant them until about two weeks after your last frost date and you can probably avoid what happened to me last year. you'll probably also want to include at least a couple of non-heirloom plants that are disease resistant and good sellers. Some heirlooms don't' produce as much per plant as, say, an Early Girl or a Sweet 100 cherry. I've had good luck with Celebrity and Yellow Pear -- except fo rlast year .

BarbRad grows tomatoes
At least she does her best. Some years she gets a bumper crop. But she was disappointed in 2009, when the tomatoes had one problem after another. You can read about that in My Tomatoes Were Hit By a Frost in Late April.
