A garden is only as good as the ground that it's planted in. Discussion forum for the many ways to improve the soil where we plant our gardens.

Checked on my tomatoes today...so far so good. Although they are not very big.

OK, Dork Fish - it's been 3 months since you told us about your community garden and your tomato plants. How about an update? Would you plant in the community garden again?

It turned out to be to difficult to take care of them like I should. Not a good tomato year. I will definitely try another community garden but not this one. One that is closer to home. I already have plots for next year. Hopefully it will be a better year. I am going to try drip irrigation also...

Good for you trying another community garden. It WAS a weird year for most of the U.S. gardens. I know the Midwest got lots of rain. We had horrible wildfires and then floods. Not the best of years for much of the garden here, but we finally got tomatoes to freeze/can.

Wasn't a great year for me either, weird weather. Fingers crossed next year will be better.
