Nope, just South Jersey sandy soil, compost, a good fence and lots of attention. No synthetic fertilizers.
I love my 2 dogs, but they know not to go withing 2 ft of the fence.

I'm across the river from the self proclaimed tomato capital of the world.

They even have tomato fight... <no tasty delicious tomatoes were harmed during this fight as they are over ripened>

Yup, I used to live in Pennsauken and the tomatoes I grew there were the best ever! One year I planted as early as mid-April and was still taking them in into October.

Really nice , amazing tomaotes. I had to put a fence around my garden this year as one of my dogs, Bella, loves to eat the tomatoes. ! She only eats the ripe ones.

It IS nice to see the faces behind the comments! Blurry, but here's my coal-powered car and me.

Saw a lot of those last time I was in Paris back in 2002. They were very popular there due to the lack of parking space. My wife had me stand in front of one for a picture because she didn't think anyone back home would believe how small they were.

save the ash for the driveway to keep the wittle kar from swippin

Now I understand Pocono Eagle's comment

Nice tomatos, I usually enter in vegetable categories including tomatos at the Bloomsburg fair. One year I entered largest vegetable categorie witch is 3 of your largest vegetables of any type. That year I entered tomatos in that categorie and had a total weight of 7.2 lbs. I won a blue, but iv'e not come close to that weight in a long time. Won a few ribbons this year for beans and peppers, but blight wiped out all my tomatos this year. I usually plant heirloom varities and several others.
