Tomato plant help

bird-watcher · July 30, 2008

Hi ,
My name is Jean and I am a new member to this forum. I am a newbie with growing tomatoes. I have a slight problem and I was hoping some of you experts out there could help me. We just had some pretty high winds here in my zone 4b/5a yard. I have my tomato plants staked but obviously not well enough. My problem is , one of the plants split right at the base. Half of the plant is hanging on the ground. Is there any hope of wrapping this plant with anything and saving it or should I just cut half of it off and call it a big newbie mistake. Any ideas would be gratefully appreciated.
Thanks,
Jean
