In this week’s podcast and newsletter, Don Shor of Redwood Barn Nursery (https://redwoodbarn.com/) in Davis, CA and I discuss this year’s unusual weather, emphasizing the importance of proper soil temperature and patience when planting. Don shares insights on different tomato varieties, explaining determinate, indeterminate, and heirloom types, alongside effective watering and mulching techniques for possible drought conditions.
