My Florida Fall-Winter Tomatoes, so far with pic, Oct 24,11

Seem to be doing OK, have some minor issues on the lower leaves, will post a pic on a new post. I'm watering daily, about 2/3 gallon per Tom plant, rain water when available. Spraying leaves and watering once a week with compost tea. A major issue for me growing in the winter is lack of light. I've found a spot that right now gets direct sunlight from 9am to 4pm, 7hrs total. Hope thats enough. By Dec 21 we only get 10 hrs of daylight any way, I'm looking for a field somewhere close, or maybe a rooftop!

If you can hang something white like a sheet over the fence, or paint it white, it will help because you'll get reflected light.
