Tomatoes in South Texas
We are in our second year in San Antonio and last year had very little yield from our tomato plants. This year we put them in the ground early (end of March). The plants have blossoms and are not in direct sunlight. Is there anyone out there who can help us increase the yield at this stage of the game?

Tomato's need lots of sun and you have to keep them watered, especially in the hot Texas summers. I think it may be a sunlight issue.

When temperatures reach over 90 degrees, tomatoes stop pollinating themselves. I suspect this may be part of your problem. You can help them along by tapping the blooms gently each day to get the pollen 'activated'.
