Stake or cage tomatoes?
When I looked at Craig Lehoullier's website
http://nctomatoman.topcities.com/Fro..._Mar_03_04.htm and looked at the "2003 Growout Spreadsheet" which has links to photos of the tomato plants, I was struck by the fact that *all* the tomato plants seem to be staked. I had given up growing determinate varieties because I had difficulty staking some of them, but using tomato cages last year did not work well for me. I'm sure that many on this group have good luck with the various cages, but I just can't see myself dealing with 6-foot tall cages (or storing them over the winter). Anne Lurie NE Raleigh "Michael" wrote in message ... I have always used stakes to support my tomatoes, but I have read a few articles about caging. I was planning on getting concrete reinforcing wire with the 6x6 openings and making my own cages, but I thought I would like to hear from someone who has tried both. Thanks for your help! |
