End Of Summer 2016 Tomato Garden

Well my Tomatoes did not do very well this year.  I think grubs caused this.  I dug down into thge soil and there were a bunch of these 3/4 inch long grubs. From what I read nematodes are the best way to fight these and to water in the morning. Luckily I had a few volunteer tomotoes pop up in my other raised garden bed and they are doing much better.  Only 2 plants and they are putting about 2 tomotoes a week each.  I think a couple things lead to this.  1. I did not fertilize them. 2. Inconsistent watering. 3. Planted the plants to close together.
