I will DEFINITELY do some mulching. I may also test and incrementally lower the ph of the soil in that bed - it's mostly Nunn's cruddy sandy loam (which I am told is generally pretty alkaline) so that may improve things for ALL of my vegetables.

I don't have a lawn or any grass clippings, but fortunately, this little garden is at the office (my boss is awesome and let me plant veggies in the office garden bed) and my co-workers have lawns I can exploit. Communal gardening at it's best.

I just wanted to post these pictures here for comparison's sake - to give y'all an idea of why I'm worried about this tomato at all. I've mentioned the tomato on my balcony - so here they are side by side.
