Greenhouse Tomatoes

If I grow tomatoes in a greenhouse, does that mean they are organic?

No. While the greenhouse is a suitable environment for tomatoes for most of the year, it is even more ideal for many insect pests and disease pathogens. The worst insect pest is the whitefly. There are many insects and diseases to deal with. For more information, request Mississippi State University Extension Service Publication number 1861, Greenhouse Tomatoes - Pest Management in Mississippi.
