Every summer, I get super excited to grow tomatoes. But wow, the heat in my area is brutal! My poor plants always look like they’re melting by July. I’ve tried watering early, giving them shade, and even picking heat-tolerant varieties. Still, those leaves droop and the fruit struggles to ripen. Even with all the challenges, I love gardening. There’s something special about watching those tiny green tomatoes appear. It’s not always about the perfect harvest—it’s about the little wins and learning something new each season. I’m not giving up! This year, I’ll try again and maybe finally get that juicy tomato sandwich I’ve been dreaming about. gardening #tomatoes #summertips #growyourown #plantlife #gardening #tomatoes #summertips #growyourown #plantlife
