Solarization? You mean cook the veggie garden?

Yes, exactly, at a good high temperature over an extended period.
Donna forwarded on a recipe for such just recently. If your tomatos
are shot in the current spot, this summer would be a good time to do it.
If you've still got tomatos in that garden, then you'll have to delay
until fruiting is over and do it in the fall, and perhaps whenever it
gets hot/bright enough next spring before planting.
