I’m about to give up on my garden. We’ve only had a couple of rainy days since March and it’s been very hot. I got one tomato off of each of my better girl plants and then they died. I water them every day, but it’s not enough.

My jalapenos are doing quite well, though.

Sorry to hear that. Drought/lack of water is tough. For tomatoes, I have had to use shade cloth to protect them from the hot afternoon sun, and water them twice a day sometimes.
