In this episode of The Compost Pile, David sits down with Paul Lemoine to break down everything you need to know about planning and growing tomatoes in Southeast Texas (Zone 9a). From when to start tomato seeds and how early planting improves yields, to choosing between determinate vs indeterminate tomatoes, this episode is packed with practical, real-world advice.

Paul shares decades of experience growing tomatoes in hot, humid climates, including tips on variety selection, hybrids vs heirlooms, early frost protection, mulching, watering practices, disease prevention, and organic stink bug control. We also cover common tomato problems like blossom end rot, splitting, and poor fruit set in high heat, plus how raised beds and partial shade can dramatically improve success.

Whether you’re starting tomatoes from seed, planting transplants, or trying to beat the Texas heat, this episode will help you grow healthier plants and better harvests this season.
