The ONLY Way to Grow Tomatoes

Nicole Burke
About this episode

If you're still growing all your tomato plants inside those flimsy tomato cages from the hardware store, this is your sign to level up. In this episode, I'm giving you 3 MUCH better options to support your vining tomatoes, including the option I'm convinced is the only way to go if you want to maximize productivity in your garden. Then, I'll show you exactly how to set up your space so that you'll get tons of fruit all season long.

 

Prepare to be SHOCKED at just how many tomatoes you get off of one trellis when you grow them my way. NOTE: We're talking about indeterminate, aka vining, tomatoes. Tomato cages are fine for determinate, or bush, tomatoes.
