I farm 5 hectares of tomatoes in North Carolina. This season I'm dealing with failing irrigation in the dry months. 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.
Thank you for reading my story.

Thinking of you and your family, Delilah. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I went through something like this 6 years ago and strangers helped me out. Take care.
Stay strong. Small businesses are the heart of Charlotte. Hope you're open again soon. Don't give up.

thanks for sharing this, Delilah. Your post was clear and honest. Thinking of Charlotte.
It takes guts to ask. Well done. Wish I lived closer to Guarulhos so I could bring a meal.
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Makati.

hope the shop reopens soon. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home
Hope the shop reopens soon. After 20 years in accounting I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care.
Good luck, Delilah. Small businesses are the heart of Charlotte. Hope you're open again soon. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.
I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. Love from Jakarta
