Hi RAllen, since you posted another Intro thread, I took the liberty of moving this one to the Tomato Forum. Welcome and hope you get your answer from fellow Floridans (is that the right word?)

Maybe Floridians!

I'm not a Floridian, but I am growing tomatoes in temps that stayed in mid 90's for a couple weeks. Not too hot to grow the plants, but it can slow down production and ripening. Mine have actually been chugging right along, still setting new fruit. This time of year may be when it turns into an advantage that they are partly shaded. Just keep your plants well watered and they will take off again once the weather breaks.
