Plant some heat tolerant tomatoes, if you can keep them watered, more bang for the buck and more ways to use tomatoes.Very heat tolerant they will need to be. :-)
Right now, in San Antonio, the temp is 97 degrees with an overnight low of 73 forecasted. Tomorrow we expect to hit 98 degrees.
Forecast for the next ten day is . . . depressing. The local organic gardening guru seems to think we might catch a break in June. Sure hope his crystal ball is crystal clear!

Very heat tolerant they will need to be. :-) I deep water my tomato's once per week. They are in a mixture of Hill Country caliche and horse manure. The plants are 1 meter tall and full of green tomato's.

Tomorrow in Minneapolis we may hit...76.
Sunday a week ago we had snow and 20 mph headwinds for the Minnesota Ironman bike ride.
Cheers!
