An overhead tomato support structure was build today ready to plant the tomatoes at the end of May. The verticals are 8 foot rebar and four T steel fence posts. The structure is fastened with plastic ties. There is enough space for 25 tomato plants. Surface area used is 8 feet by 25 feet and the structure is six feet clearance for head room. A layer of compost was added, which is all the fertilizer used.To support the plants 1/8 cotton rope is used, hand tied with a non slip knot on the plant and a clove hitch on the support structure. Additional ropes are added to support branching. Only crowded suckers are removed
