I don't recall the price, Kelly, but it was in the hundreds plus a LOT of freight (same day air). And I think it's an every-year deal, not just a one-time or occasional application - is that right?

I'm not even sure I'll be able to produce much of anything again next year - they say conditions in the Pacific will be the same and our drought will continue.

I won't be growing the tomatoes next year. I'll be starting the plants, but another guy in our project, who has a big irrigation well, will be growing them - in RKN free soil. I do have 5000 row/ft on drip tape now, supplied by a well. So I could do the tomatoes even in continued drought, but the decision to replace me was made before I got it installed. Nobody wants to risk losing the tomato crop again next year - like I did last year.
