My garden is so sad. FYI The biggest cause of "Tomato blossom drop" is this dreadful heat. Google this and every site will tell you day temps over 85 are not good, and even over 4 hours of temps over 100, will cause tomato plants to drop all blossoms and go into survival mode.

What gets me is some of my local friends' plants are producing nicely while most are having my same problem. Maybe it's the heat hardiness of their plants.

My cucumber vines have all dried up and zuccine plants have only produced a few fruits and have died off. We watered plants everyday.

I miss my fresh veggies and am ready to move to Alaska…….
