We showed our Florida Weave trellis for determinate tomatoes on our last video, and now it's time to build a trellis for these taller, indeterminate tomatoes. We'll show you a quick and easy setup for trellising taller tomatoes in your backyard garden.
We'll go through every piece of the supply list needed and show you a step by step assembly on this hanging string trellis. After installing the tall tomato trellis, we'll move to another one of our no-till plots and get our peppers planted.

Yes! - Ever since Josh Sattin’s video (A Trellis to Make You Jealous) came out (May, 2019), I have been using the T-Post, conduit, and string method for trellising my indeterminate tomatoes. You are correct. It works great. Love it! I also like your improvement with the PVC elbows at each end. Thanks! Best wishes from Kate in Olympia, WA - 4/29/2023.

If, like me, you endlessly battle birds, squirrel, rabbit, groundhog, deer, etc - use this premise as framework (think square as opposed to linear) to throw 3/4” netting over your garden plots. Roll any extra netting over conduit at the base of opposing sides, and affix hooks on the end posts so you can just lift and hang the base conduit/netting to access the garden. Game-changer.

Travis, we use the same conduit trellis system, but I add another row of conduit zip-tied near the bottom of the T-posts. That lets me keep the tomato clip string taught since it's tied at both the top and bottom (no chance of pulling out like a landscape staple might have), and also lets me add Hortanova trellis in parts for other climbing plants. Either way that is the best trellis I've seen and we are on our 3rd year with our components. I use 4' bamboo stakes cut in half to 2' length for my peppers. It provides enough support for the plant when attached with a "tape tool" for the life of the plant (just add more tape loops higher up as it grows). I was surprised to find if I pull the bamboo up at the end of the season, it seems to last multiple years. I have some that is starting it's 4th season. If you have not seen a tape tool, they ware a great thing to have in the garden. Easy to use and makes a trellis or stake connection in about 1/2 second.

Thanks for the video and the idea. We have a slew of indeterminates that are now over 7 feet tall in one of our 4'X8' raised beds. The tomato plants are still growing and blooming and producing after a very hot summer (AZ many 110+ temps) and several weeks of near freezing temps in Jan and early Feb. We have harvested over 150#s of tomatoes in the past 7 weeks. Yep that is 150 pounds. We have a PVC set up (vertical and horizonal) with wire mesh on top to which we strung the plants up to as they grew. Now the plants are over the top of the mesh and pretty much overloading the PVC pipes. I already have some metal t-poles (7') in the ground supporting the vertical PVCs. I will remove/replace the horizontal PVC with metal conduit and yank out the vertical PVC poles and use your setup in a modified version. I'll set up one of our 3 4x8 raised beds with this new set up and wait to see when and if the current plants start dying off before changing out the PVC stuff. Our beds are in our back yard as we live in an urban neighborhood and have limited space.

I used a trellis system like that last year from my son gold tomatoes. Except instead of using conduit I used high tensile electric fence wire for the top. I also used bailing twine for the plant support with tomato clips, but the problem I ran into was the in the beginning the string would not stay stationary in the ground with the steaks I used. So this year I think I'm actually going to venture out and try planting on top of the string maybe tie a stick around it then plant on top of the string and maybe it will hold a little bit better Don't know what I did wrong last year but that's my plan to give it a try this year! I enjoy all of your great videos content as well as information and learning from you keep up the good work neighbor

Has anyone tried to use the conduits as the vertical posts instead of the T posts for uniformity? Im gearing up to build mine but im torn on which to use. I want all conduit to make it more visually appealing but worry it will just slowly bury itself deeper over time losing height under the weight. I've considered making a lil flat wooden "foot" to bury under ground for each vertical pole to prevent that but ive no idea if it'd work. Does anyone have any experience with conduits as vertical posts that can advise me?

Just drive it deep enough so that the "t" on the t-post is in the ground.

What size conduit in diameter?

I think it's 1/2" or 3/4". Either should work.

I still prefer cattle panels. Just place them higher off the ground to the top of your t post.

That nasty cold weather we got before Christmas killed them. I had them double covered with frost protection fabric, but it didn't matter.

Metal or PVC conduit?

I use metal because it's stronger.

I've seen several different videos of this same method & I did this last summer. I will not use conduit again! Some of my tomato plants were too heavy for the conduit. They bent terribly & one actually came crashing to the ground with 3 plants on it. A lot of others were bent & borderline ready to go down. Next yr. I'm going to use strong, stiff PVC pipe (maybe schedule 80.) Not sure why this is shown with conduit when even though it's metal, it's not strong enough to support heavy tomato plants.

I haven't had any issues with the conduit. I do get a little bending, but I just turn it the other way the next time and it straightens. I did have one side come down during a hurricane this past year, but it was loaded with cucumbers and the winds were crazy.

That trellis is not tall enough for indeterminate tomatoes. They will grow to the top and then fall over and grow downward.

Down here they won't. Our tomato season is usually done by mid to late July.
