What is your heat like? Dry? Humid?

Mine is dry.

I grow Heatwave, which is a hybrid, and Taxi and Homestead
which are heirlooms. San Marzano makes paste tomatoes well
for me, but they don't taste as good as some others. San
Marzano is cherry/plum sized and grew gobs of tomatoes that
weren't too sweet(which is good in my book). Some plants had
smaller fruits than others. I am planning to save seeds from
only the plants that produced larger ones and see if that
increases my fruit size.

Apologies if the message formats oddly, the cats are
insisting on helping me type this morning.
