New Method Of Supporting Tomato Plants
This year I tried a new method of supporting tomato plants. Usually I string a wire between two posts and attach each tomato cage to the wire. But the wires get in the way when cultivating or harvesting the crop, and they don't always provide proper support. So this year I tried electric fence posts with plastic insulators. They worked very well. The wire cage simple fits into the insulator. I can use a couple poles per cage. Works great and they're easy to set up. (Jim E.
