Has anyone tried growing tomatoes in a mediterranean climate...
Without irrigation? My husband and I may be moving to Jordan in a bit and they grow their tomatoes there starting in the spring with the rains and then all through the dry summer-- without ever watering. I know tomatoes have huge root systems, and so I was wondering if this was perhaps possible for all tomatoes (as long as you started early enough to get the root system going) or if this was a special trait they had selected for over the years... or perhaps a mix of both!
I planned on trying out several heirlooms, but figured I would see if anyone here has done something similar. Thanks! Julianna |
