How different our growing seasons are! I was looking at my tomato plants this evening and they are just about exhausted. Of course they were planted mid-April and we had tomatoes by June, so they have had a long hard summer. In a couple of weeks I will gather the last of the green tomatoes and clean out the pots. This fall the lawn guy is going to extend the planting bed next to the fence and I will have actual garden plots next summer. With raised sides and real dirt and everything. My pot gardens always did very well. Let's see if the raised beds make a difference.
...your raised beds should do well...
if they get a LOT of sun, you might consider burying soaker hose... nothing stops tomatoes from setting quicker than getting dry...
I'll probably have tomatoes until Thanksgiving...unless we have an early killing frost...
