This year I planted my tomatoes in holes filled with mulch and as a
result I'm getting bigger plants than I am used to. The problem is
keeping them tied up. I need so much material to tie them that I have
started using twine rather than the traditonal cloth strips torn from
old sheets. Is twine the standard for those who don't use cages?

Thanks


I have never used twine and I guess it would work. I have used the spools of twist-tie as well However, I usually collect old bed
sheets, etc. and cut/tear into strips. I think the cloth ties work better and don't cut into the plant.
