Even without consulting botanists here at the university where I work I can see that I'd have to have a raised bed, at the very least, with our limestone bedrock. And spider mites--ah, the stories I can tell about fighting with those little plant-tormentors. It's also probably too hot at night. Special tomatoes have been cultivated for growing down here, where it doesn't get cool enough for pollination for much of the summer (below 80 degrees is necessary for most tomatoes). Thanks for sending the writeup, Q.
