    I call the phenomenon tomato troubles: the yellow-spotted foliage that falls off, or the plant that produces all those misshapen fruits. And yes, the attack of the hornworms, too, when you wake up to a lot of missing leaves one day. Or all of the above. A few years back I checked in with the tomato man himself, Craig LeHoullier, author of the book “Epic Tomatoes,” to see what we can do even under such high summer pressures to bring in that delicious harvest, and since I’m hearing from listeners already this year about tomato troubles of their own, I thought it...
