This is my first year at a straw garden. My beans and tomatoes look great. My tomatoes are and have been loaded with blooms. According to the maturity date I ought to be eating tomatoes come July 1. The problem is I have no tomatoes. Someone was telling me that in order for a plant to "set" fruit the temperature couldn't consitantly stay in the 90's. I never paid much attention to it before and always had tomatoes but they were planted in the ground. Is there any truth to this or do they fruit later since they're in straw?
