Tomatoes grown in a greenhouse should not need to be washed, outside maybe, if they are dirty, wipe them off.
Agree with all you say. Down here in the heat we can produce small tomatoes when the big ones wont make, but it is still not worth it, if you want to make any money.

I have to build shade houses for summer, with fans. Think I'll put up a new thread and see if anybody has tried.
