      Yes, in 1968 was the first time I grew my own tomatoes, I had no clips only twine and some bamboo stakes. I credit my success to growing my Sweet 100s on a south facing side of my white garage. I had tomatoes all summer well into October. All done in Western Washington. Pretty good for an 18 yr old beginner.

We have to have things planted and in the seedling stage at minimum. Without James P and one other gardening channel, I would be having a much harder time.

    Cattle panel trellis also solves the tomato management and allows you to pick the tomatoes at a lower height.

    • @tanarehbein7768
      @tanarehbein7768 24 дні тому +2

      I agree. And to save on gardening expenses, and for time saving simplicity, I just weave the tomato vines back and forth through the cattle panel trellis for support. Believe me this technique has been well tested in the wind and rain and crazy storms at my house. Sometimes I will use Grower's Edge Garden Plant Ties. It's reusable spongy plastic coated wire. It's cushioned twist ties for your plants.

    A couple of years ago I found these 'corkscrew'-tomato-stakes in Germany, and I would never want to do it any way else anymore. Not sure if they are sold in the US but they are the best! They are about 8ft long, the first part is 2ft straight, you drive that into the ground, than come the 'corkscrew' part. Very very easy to lead the tomato around the stake, it holds great also when it's very windy. No ropes, mayby two regular clips for the first part of the grow. RVS so really sustainable. The plants can move up and down without anything ever getting stuck or to tight. I love them! Edit: these stakes also work great with bigger sunflowers. After season, if you manage to turn and twist the sunflowerstem in one piece free from the stake the stem itsself has a corkscrewshape. If you dry these stems you can use them next season as corkscrewstakes for the tomatoes, they last only one season but work very well!

    FYI the red tomato clips last longer than the clear. When I first started using them many years ago, they were all red. The clear ones came out and they were a lot cheaper so I bought them but they were failing before the old red ones were and they were several years older and had been out in the sun longer. The red ones are a lot harder to find these days but for some reason the sun doesn’t make them crack as fast as the clear ones. Love ya Tuck ❤❤❤❤❤!!!

  • @locustsun

    I started using the clips this year, but forgot this was the video that got me started.
    Very happy with them. Much better than the impenetrable sagging wall created by the Florida weave.
    I didn’t use the pulleys and probably don’t have space.
    I combined the clips with wrapping the cord around the plant. I put a clip, wrap until it needs more support, then add another clip.
    Hoping the clips last a few years. I keep them in a store plant pot out in the garden so they’re handy.
    Thanks!!
