Tomato Spirals?

I'd like to try staking this year. Just don't know what method to use. I read one just a week ago. They put stakes in at each end (10feet) and planted the tomatoes in between. then as they grew they wove twine from one stake to the other, and adding twine as the toms grew taller. I didn't see a picture, but they must use 2 twine each time to hold the plant. It said they grew much better that when individually staked. This is how I do it: http://albums.photo.epson.com/j/View...766&p=60247499 http://albums.photo.epson.com/j/View...766&p=60247632 I plant peas on the outside, the tomatoes on the inside. The tomatoes reach the trellis just about the time the peas are done. The stakes are buried a good two feet, and the whole thing has lasted 5 years so far. -- Julie |
