[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 1149653, member: 18945"] Rain to the excess will cause yellowing, loss of pollination and if fruit does produce, the maters will grow so rapidly the skins split open. But tomato plants can handle more moisture than most plants IF the ground has the right NPK and pH. If the ground is staying moist and the temp is in the mid-upper 90s, that will cause wilty looking plants in the heat of the day but they should look better in cool mornings and late evenings. We have had a LOT of rain here, but where I gardened this year has really good draining soil and both the tomatoes and peppers have done great. Can't give the tomatoes away fast enough to keep up. I'm done with them and as someone else said, I am now in crowder pea he77. Been thinking about buying one of those pea shellers. [/QUOTE]
