already have fruit set in March

SpookyShoe · March 25, 2013

I set my plants out in mid Feb. and already have several baby tomatoes. There was a long stretch where temps got into the high 70s to low 80's. Anyone else from the Gulf Coast have this happening?

I'm in Spring and have a lot of blooms, but no tomatoes. My plants are setting under 5 gallon buckets today and tomorrow in hopes the frost or freeze don't kill them. After tomorrow night, maybe no more freezes.
