Like I said I was kidding.
I lived south of him for about ten years and the only tomato I could grow in the summer was cherries in the shade.
Most successful people put out plants in February.
Yes people do have green houses here and there but they spend most of their time keeping them cool.
The darn thing better be automated or with an alarm too.
I like the idea of a big hoop house with shade cloth.
That is why I am growing under trees.
I experimented one year and the shade garden did much much better.
You guys are also at around 5000 feet elevation.
It cools off fast there and sunburn can be bad.
