Hi all. My daughter and SIL have just moved to the Las Cruces, NM area. We are in need of help in knowing when and how to plant tomatoes and other veggies in the type of environment. All help is appreciated. : )

Lynn:

For starters, have them check their state land-grant university or their county extension office for local information. They should have tons of horticultural information for both the home and commercial gardener.

I'm sure you'll get some advice from ATP members living in the area as well.

Thanks Linda. I did find some sites for growing in their area. Had great information.

Lynn: You may have already found these sites but I googled and found this information:

http://local.garden.org/Edible...

Thanks Lin, I will have to check them out later. Something is wrong with my computer and it won't let me go outside ATP. : (

That's a good thing!

Lin you really know how to cheer me up.
Computer guy just left, all is well. The electrical storm knocked some things wanky jawed and they had to be reset. Internet up and working great once again.

Great links you posted above Lin. Sent them to my daughter.

Wanky jawed??? What language do you people speak in Oregon? I've never heard that one.

It almost sounds like "Southern" speak.

adj. Chiefly British, -ki·er, -ki·est.

Shaky; feeble.
Wrong; awry.

[Probably alteration of dialectal wanky, alteration of wankle, from Middle English wankel, from Old English wancol, unsteady.]

I grew up hearing that term. : )
My grandmother was from Mass, that might be why.

Still just sounds funny, like something that should make people laugh.
