Charlie obviously meant that he had wilt in his garden and he 
hopes that heating it would get rid of it. It probably won't.
If your soil was good last year, it probably will be good this 
year too. Here in northern California the soil is almost 70F, 
on the north side of a hill, so it is probably a propitious time 
for you to plant your tomato seeds. Good luck, good health, and 
bon appetit.
