Easy DIY Tomato Cages - Our Super Sturdy and Cheap Tomato Cage System - Growing Squash Vertically
Our garden is almost completely planted and our veggies are growing fast. In this video we show how we make our tomato cages. Our tomato cages have lasted us over 15 years. They are very strong, sturdy and look exactly the same as they did when we made them. We had a request to show how we make them and we needed 4 more. It's a fast and easy tomato trellis system that we easily move around the garden. Growing vertically lets us grow much more in the same amount of space, all the plants are upright and easy to take care of and pick from. Our trellis system allows us to substantially increase our harvest yields. Thanks for watching, Dawn & Tom
My husband is a contractor, so you may see us doing things a little different and using some of our construction tools in the garden.
Our zone 6 vegetable garden is set up using the Elliot Coleman method of 30 inch wide beds with 18 inch wide walking paths. We've been vegetable gardening in this spot for over 30 years. The beds are 25 feet long and most have been in these locations for 15 years. We just rotate crops and amend the soil as needed. Thanks to books like The Winter Harvest Handbook and The Market Gardener. Plus, with the use of our hoop house and covering beds we garden as close to year round as we can. We rely heavily on tee posts, Hortonova FA trellis netting and we plant as much as we can in landscape weed fabric.
Some of the tools and materials we used - 5' x 150' Steel Reinforcing Mesh, Hog Ring Plyers, 1/2 inch hog rings, 8 inch zip ties & Fencing Plyers
