I'm at 82 feet above sea level here. It's hotter than hell right now and
dry as a bone. I have a determinate and an indeterminate plant, both in
pots, both get water every day.

Summer lasts a LOONG time here. I may have to move the eternally growing
one closer to the house and let it climb over.
Muhdear says that they'll root to the ground in the pots I have them in if I
don't move them. Perhaps I should get it close now...

I'll take pictures. I'm pretty sure we're safe from frost at this point.
