Dude, I grow tomatoes in a 4' x 6' plot of dirt by the sidewalk in Montreal with zero tending and I have more tomatoes than I know what to do with every year. What are you doing so wrong?
When you say zero tending, are you even watering them? Asking for a friend who knows fuck all about street tomatoes.
If they are in the ground they only need one good watering a week after they get established. In containers you need to water more.
I was exaggerating a little. I tied them to sticks and removed the useless branches/leaves. I watered the first week and nothing since.
Living in a place with much hotter summers.
I would think that would benefit them, being native to the area around the equator.
