Thanks to all who helped me with lean and lower for 2017! A couple weeks ago I pulled all my tomatoes before a hard freeze.

Stretched the vines out and many were over 20 feet long . . . and that is with topping them a month before! The longest were grafted also. No 20 foot tomato cages on the market!

The orange bailing string and the brown polypropylene string worked great - not even close to breaking.

It's amazing how that is done. One of the many interesting things I have learned at Tomatoville.
Thanks to all for sharing your knowledge.
