Default vertical hold knob?

I think that's what my garden needs, one of those old-time TV vertical hold knobs.

I didn't stake my tomatoes this year. It was more of a half- Monkey-A**ed

Florida weave.

After several storms of driving wind and rain, things are basically horizontal.

If you are old enough to remember what a "vertical hold knob" is used for on a TV..... I salute you!

I'll bet his TV has one of those new fangled rectangular screens, like a Preditca or something, not a round screen, like Nature intended.

Ha ha! I remember the vertical hold on TV.

Sorry to hear about your horrid weather Gary. Maybe you need to switch to the DWARFS!

Linda,

It's just Murphy's Law catching up with me. The one year I put the least effort into plant supports is the one year they needed it the most. Live and learn.
