Religious watering is the only reason I have any. It hasn't rained in Ladysmith basically at all since June. Brown grass and a tomato jungle is the state if my yard at present.
I like that my tomatoes bred in and for Zone 3 are doing well here too in this heat. You need to be tough and versatile to be a Canadian tomato

"normal coastal " temps ......the plants were reinvigorated enough to get back to normal growth .....

Imagine if it had been a bit more ideal (cooler ) for longer this year

wow !
