Now please don't think I'm rubbing it in here but you guys/gals torture me all summer with your pictures of luscious tomatoes and other produce while my garden is out there growing weeds in the killer heat. My tomato plants bear all winter and spring, if I can keep them healthy but fizzle out usually by early June. They can't take the hot nights. So the veggie growing is confined to the moderate weather months here, just like it is for you (only other months).

Anybody got an idea why pumpkins develop a bitter taste? My daughter grew the same variety, Baby Bear, both last year and this year. She wanted to grow the same kind again because last year they tasted so very good. But this year she says they had a slight bitter taste to the flesh. We used the same soil amendments, and the same fertilizer both years, too.
