My staking idea

tgplp · January 30, 2011

Hi all! This is how I will stake my tomatoes this year:

I will get a five foot tall wooden stake for each tomato plant, and put them in the ground in rows, three feet apart. Then I'll weave twine between the stakes. I'll plant a tomato seedling by each stake, and tie it to the twine/stakes as they grow. So basically it will be like tomatoes growing on a homemade fence.

I have a question- could I grow peas and beans on the other side of the fence, or would that be too much?

Comments, please!
