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 always used twine, not sisal, for tying up my tomatoes. Never had a problem. I have cages around mine and do not tie them at all. It's probably too late to put cages around yours since they're so big, but it's something to think about next year. I have been growing tomatoes for over 20 years and have always staked and tied. What to you believe the advantages are to using cages? I have the materials laying around to make them is it is really a better way to go. Thanks, |
