Like AZRuss, every year has vastly different results, in my garden. June is the time of year that I try to get my second crop of tomatoes in and plant crowders and a few other things to take advantage of the monsoons. This has worked well for me.
I also have a severe problem with soil nematodes, so a lot of tomatoes don't work for me. Celebrity, Bush Goliath, Susy and a few others have worked from year to year, but depending on the weather and timing of planting can even cause them to fail. I can't grow Green Zebra, Durzba, Mule team, Stupice, most Black tomatoes and Hearts that don't have thick foliage and short maturity times.
Peppers do great though, and I just got the seeds in this week.
