My husband and I LOVE home-grown tomatoes and really only want to grow tomatoes in the 3 raised beds in our back yard. So far, we've been successful planting tomatoes in 2 of the beds for the past 2 years. We always plant different varieties so there are not two plants of the same variety in the same bed. Each bed is 8' x 4', and we've had 6 plants to each bed, mostly small to medium sized tomatoes. I've spent the last few hours researching various sources online re: the necessity of crop rotation with tomatoes. About 25% of the sources say that this is not absolutely necessary as long as the soil is amended each year to provide nutrients that might have been leached in previous growing seasons. One source even said that tomatoes prefer to be planted in the same spot! What does Cooperative Extension say? While we also have 3 raised beds in our front yard next to the sidewalk, we'd prefer to keep the tomato plants in the backyard to prevent passers-by from helping themselves to our crops. If we don't absolutely have to rotate the tomato plants to the front-yard beds, what else (besides amending the soil) can we do to ensure a good healthy crop of tomatoes? Thank you so much for any advice you can give us!
