It would be a huge learning curve to move from the north to gardening in the south, and vice versa... we still haven't had a freeze and have been bringing tomatoes inside to ripen (really, really late this year even for us!).

Dave, do you have problems where you are with your tomato plants getting "blighted" ? I'm putting that in quotes, because I'm not at all sure actual blight is what I have, maybe verticillium wilt I think (although I haven't been ambitious enough to figure it out for sure). At any rate, somewhere around mid summer we always get some cool, rainy weather and that's when it starts -- the leaves at the bottom of the plant start turning brown and brittle and it works its way on up. Just curious... Smiling
