    Thank you for this good info on tomatoes, Jill! I love how you actually show how you do things instead of just talking about how you do things. You’re a really good teacher!

    Thanks for all your videos. Never to old to learn new things(70 yrs. Young) was raised on a farm that we (8 of us) had to make a living off of. Long days & tractor lights, besides all the farm animals, gathering veggies to sale , can , & just survival mode! We made it!!!! 🤪Today I cherish all my grandparents & Mom & dad that taught us these skills! Thank you for all you do & share with us & I pray God blesses you abundantly!!!

    This is my first year using this method on my tomatoes and so far I am blown away by the results! Thank you as always for sharing this content. I didn't trellis my peppers or eggplant this way because I didn't think about it but I'm so glad that I watched your vlog. As always, you're always teaching me something new. God Bless!

    Thank you for the reminder about pruning the tomatoes!! I have 3 porch-size cherry tomatoes in pots on my Front Porch, & they're getting "tall enough"!! I need them to "branch out" now & put their energy into fruiting!!

    Jill, Seeing Your high tunnel tomato trellis with the jute gave me idea for my green-stalk planter how to support the tomato plant from above and still be able to rotate the Greenstalk planter. It’s working. Thanks for the Inspiration.

    I’ve been using cattle panels for a few years. I use clips which I can take off and reuse them for a few years before they start to break down.
    Blessings y’all 🙏🏻

    Thank you for showing this! I am in Missouri and garden on half an acre in town but have planted 70 tomatoes in ground and trellised on cattle panels. I do plan to plant the rest in my 40ft raised beds down the middle and trellis this way!! I just ordered my jute twine so this video has prepared me lol thanks Jill!

    Hey, Jill! Really enjoy hearing about your trellising system, as well as what's going on with your farm in your other videos, like with zinnias. Wanted to mention one thing, with love for all you do. You have gorgeous hair! You do seem to play and fuss with it a lot, maybe out of habit or nervousness? Anyway, it does become a distraction from what you're saying. It's so lovely and flipping around in the screen
    it's easy to watch your hair and lose sight of what you're focused on, like tomato trellising. I hope you take this observation in the spirit in which it's intended--not as criticism, not as pick-you-apart, but as hoping to help you improve your vlog. Many blessings to you and your family:-).

    Hi Jill, thank you for the indepth demo on this trellis system. It's a system anyone can do. Your two leader pruning technic is working as planned. Veggies are up off the ground and plenty of air flow. Awesome job.

    One way to secure plants to trellises or whatever is nylon strips. Just while watching tv sit, relax and clip strips. It's a way to save money. I 'd love to see your high tunnel plants compared to the ones in raised beds. What makes the difference and how much different. Sweet smile! 😎

    @jeffree9015 2 роки тому +3

    The problem with jute twine is if you have burried it under the plant to anchor it. The soil will be very active and the twine will break down quite quickly.

    I’m only 5 feet tall Last year my tomatoes got 12 feet tall It was hard using a ladder because I grow in a smaller space but I had tons of amazing tomatoes I got some to go back down the trellis once they got to where I was having trouble reaching I like the idea of the umbrella trellis☂️🍅🤗

    Question...do you just wack off the tip when they get to the top of the high tunnel?

  • @mountaincreekhomestead
    @mountaincreekhomestead 2 роки тому +2

    Some of my tomatoes have tons on tiny brownish looking bugs. I've tried Neem and dust but they are still there. I've been rubbing them off the under leaves. Not sure what they are but ughhh😵😵😵

  • @JesiDavisBuildingaSimplerLife

    Any cons to wrapping the tomato plants around the twine like you do the cucs? We wrap ours around and they grow instead of clipping. But wanted to know your thoughts. Thanks for sharing, I love seeing all the trellising ... its an art form. Last year we did this with wrapping the plant around the twine, this year we are doing a combination , added a few cattle panels to see how we like it, and then a good old tomato stake.

    • @WhisperingWillowFarm
      @WhisperingWillowFarm  2 роки тому +2

      No cons to wrapping. Matter of fact that's what we've always done. We decided to try something new in the high tunnel this year

      @JesiDavisBuildingaSimplerLife 2 роки тому +1

      @@WhisperingWillowFarm cool! I was worried that I’m some areas the twine is tight, but so far no major damage. Thanks for sharing the clips, I may try these and they are fairly inexpensive too! ♥️

      Typically 5-6 years especially if you add shade cloth in the summers

    I was told if you put your tomato to close together like that you will cause disease faster? is this not true because yours are all right next to each other and look good?

    Great video! And tips! I struggled with what to use for a while as well, BT is still my “nuke” in my arsenal, but I am adapting to JADAM and KNF (Korean natural farming) techniques, REALLY powerful for the farmer, especially with all you grow and do you should check it out, you are producing all you need in your waist and in the natural flora fauna of your area. I think you would enjoy it. Check out Chris trump on UA-cam he has a 700 acre macadamia nut farm that’s all KNF farmed.
