I farm 4 hectares of tomatoes in Louisiana. This season I'm dealing with pests destroying the seedlings. I've tried what the local suppliers recommended, but results aren't improving.
I'm looking for an agronomist or experienced grower who can look at photos, soil-test results and my planting plan, and advise on what to change. A 30-minute call or exchange of messages would be fantastic.
I'm happy to share photos and a soil test. I'm using only what I can afford, so low-cost suggestions are best. I'll share how it goes - and what worked - to help others in the community.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Hope this works out for you. Greetings from Glasgow
this could happen to any of us. I went through something like this 13 years ago and strangers helped me out. All the best!
Wishing you the best, Janet. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. Sent it to 3 people at work.
Sending strength, Janet. Looking forward to the next update. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Take care.
rooting for you, Janet. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We're a small family in Bangkok but we're thinking of you.
