Tomatoes are a mystery to me also. I usually plant a bunch of tomatoes in pots of fresh dirt (cheap topsoil from Walmart) which often does better than the ones planted in the ground.

I am dreaming of attaching a green house/sunroom to my house on the lower back patio. That way I can get up from the computer, walk straight out the basement patio doors right into the sunroom in the winter and harvest some pesticide free produce. It’s a good dream, but a long way from happening.LOL

I have a greenhouse, but here in central Texas, it gets too hot in the summer. It's great for protecting plants in the winter unless we have an extended freeze though. A couple years ago, I spent over $400 for propane to keep the temps up so my tropical plants wouldn't die.

I built a hoophouse with raised beds and currently get 2 crops a year from it.
