How to figure out what zone you are in?????

Jason S · June 30, 2014

So garden in on May 17th. Second year for every thing.

My container tomatoes are awesome. Have two in around 5 gallon containers.

In ground it has been hit and miss. Have 15.

Live in Port Orchard, WA. Zip is 98366.

This year was from plants at different sources which I will contribute to say is my problem. Next year I wish to start from seed. What zone am I in?

Any suggestions? A chocolate cherry and black krim are doing great in containers on the deck. German striped, CP, Roma, sweet 100 and yellow pear are doing great in the ground. Others have a spotted leaf virus. Am spraying with neem oil and going to prune heavily. But how much set fruit should I be seeing and where should a Seattle type climate garden be right now.

Cucumbers have been in for all that time and are not really growing, while the pumpkins and squash are huge. Corn is going gangbusters but the watermelons are not even two inches tall. The confusing results are killing me.
