My tomatoes are a mess !

[lakelady]

My plants are too tall (I told you they were gonna be huge Mudman! ). They are now falling over their cages, which are 5' tall, many of the plants are 7' tall (some more!) and most of the flowers are at the top! I lost so many blossoms with the heat we've had this summer but they are trying to recover and I want them to try and push out a few more fruits before Fall. What do you do? I went around tonight trying to tie up anything I could to anything else I could but it's a jungle now! When I think back to the quality of plants I used to grow prior to learning from you all here, well, I feel dumb complaining about this "problem", but here it is.

Guess I got my wish, but wasn't quite prepared for the ginormous plants and having no plan to accomodate such long vines (my teenage boys favorite word, which I looked up and Merriam Webster has declared it really IS a word!). I thought I'd let them "gracefully" grow over the cages, but it ain't happening. They are bending awkwardly and look like they'll rip right off. So much for the natural look.

Yep, I used 7' posts for some (pounded in as far as I could) and cages for the rest. Didn't have the manpower to help me setup a weave system, that might have been a good idea.

Suggestions? It really is starting to look like a jungle in the main tomato garden!
