Cheap & Easy Tomato Trellis

[@hifumigreen7071]

I've watched numerous videos on how to trellis tomato plants - many of which requires one to spend a considerable amount of time on construction. You have illustrated how quick, simple and inexpensive it can be! Thank you for inspiring me to grow tomatoes!

[@MaxxPwrrr]

same

[@BrokenCurtain]

I recommend looking up "tripod lashing" for making a reliable knot to tie those bamboo sticks together. And maybe use something like a prusik hitch for tieing the string to the lateral stick.

[@ahnaahna7278]

Ok. I will remember about the big sunflower stems. I love growing healthy supportive plants. This lifts me. Thks for all ur inspiring ideas! 👏👏👏👏👏

[@pamb7560]

I love bamboo! Such a cool natural trellis.

[@DavidKissinger-cm3lh]

i'm converting to all bamboo trellis's this year, have been blessed with a nearby over abundance of bamboo., all for free. thanx for the info sir.

[@suzannemartinez8147]

I’ve been searching for just this kind of Video. Easy instructions, and economical using supplies I can easily find at Home Depot. Enjoyed!

[@ouibefree]

I watched your video just in time for my newly planted tomato plants. I normally skip anything involving garden construction bc I can't afford it or it's beyond my skill set but this was just perfect. I had to buy the bamboo stakes but it was worth it. I'm now going to check out all your other videos. Thanks for this common sense affordable option. And I love how natural they look in the garden. I did use one of last year's mammoth sunflower stalks as the top connecting pole.

[@victorsaldivar8477]

Thank you for teaching me everything you learn because I used to see my garden

[@billgolcher2537]

That is the best setup I've ever seen you see awesome

[@michaelcarter1061]

Man, pay dirt! I've watched a dozen trellis videos for tomato supports. ALL involve brackets and expensive wood. Then I watched yours. Teepees! I've used these for vertical growing (beans/ cukes), but your method never occurred to me. Bamboo is difficult to find here in Central Florida, so I will be using split 1x2's with a reinforcing T-Post for each teepee just as I do for my vegetables. The best part for me is the extensibility of the total length of the frame. My small row of tomatoes is 26 feet. I will simply add teepees as needed to reach this length. And, as you showed, and I have done, at the end of growth, I will simply pull up the T-post and teepee wood, fold up, and store..Wonderful. Thank you!

[@ashleyschoenfeld3482]

I've been wanting to do a line trellis, but other tutorials I've watched make it look so complicated with lots of supplies needed. Thank you for the video. I will try this method next year. I love love following your channel!

The same!

Hlo sir...myself VIKAS from karnataka,,INDIA🇮🇳 currently i m studing in 8th grade and as the lockdown is going on here and as there are no schools..i got so bored at home😦 1 day accidentaly i saw ur videos n became a big fan of urs😊😊😊😊😊 from the next day itself i started gardening in the free space behind our home and really feel so hpy that i m using these lockdown days vry efficiently 😃😃😃thank u soooo much for such a videos sir😊😊😊

[@catherinerandall1966]

I have an abundance of bamboo which originated in the next yard. Great tutorial. I had same general idea, but the string support idea is useful!

[@youtuudodo]

May I also recommend using mammoth sunflower stalk. They grow to 10-12 feet tall, make a beautiful flower head with edible seeds, and spent stalk are 1 inch or more in diameter. Also a plus they will not be invasive or nuisance to remove once they are planted.

[@Just-Nikki]

youtuudodo that’s what I use. I cut my sunflowers at soil level and save them for the next year and they become trellises

[@STEAMLabDenver]

Yes! Such a great resource for those of us that do not have access to free bamboo.

[@ahnaahna7278]

Thks for communicating so understandably….for us all. I needed to remember the bamboo stakes. Thks. You are so helpful. Thks. Ahna USA

[@nancymiller349]

Sorry I wasn't even paying attention. I was too busy noticing how cute Jag is. I'm 66 but I'll never stop looking at the cuties. LOL LOL

Agreed. That smile...

[@artistlovepeace]

Fantastic. Thank you so much for all your informative and healthy life videos and channel.

[@schaney7891]

You’ve saved me! I’ve been looking to build something like that for my tomatoes

[@ahnaahna7278]

Thanks for sunflower trellis ideas for now and in future. By myself….I do not have physical upper body strength to dig deep/install furring strips, etc. So I will use bamboo sticks for now. Thks. Ahna

[@levanera]

Yes! I made one just like this last year. The only difference I did was planting my tomatoes alternatively so there are two rows of tomatoes. Fit slightly more tomatoes in the same space.

[@genaromanno7542]

Hi! And what about the harvest? Was it good having 2 rows in the same place? Because I'm concerned about "suffocating" the plants

[@levanera]

@@genaromanno7542 Hard to say because I had a horrible drought in July and August. Before July and after August I got a bunch of fruit, though

[@genaromanno7542]

[@helenparton7164]

Thanks for your inspiring videos, we have a similar climate here in south west, Western Australia. It’s just coming into spring for us, so we are planning our summer crops.

[@Chris71151]

Excellent! Thank you! I will do this for next year. I don’t care for the cages I am using now.

[@tayaheinrich6464]

Thanks! I don't have bamboo..but gonna hunt for some long sticks!

[@saphirediamondspearlzsdpje3127]

I'm going 2use this process 4my green beans on my patio. Juss a smaller version 4now. THANKS!!😀

[@panda18770]

You have such easy n cost saving ideas. Love watching your videos. Yes bamboo can be very dangerous if planted along a roadway. When it rains n snows it falls in the roadways n is very slippery. It will take over everywhere if you let it get away from you. Thanks for the id3as.

[@Javaman92]

This is what I needed. I've moved to upstate NY and it's impossible to pound anything into the rocky ground. But I have saplings aplenty. 😁

[@BobCindyL]

Thank you so much. what a wonderful idea! I know what I am doing next year. Just a word of caution. I read comments on another you tubers video where they had left the bamboo poles (they bought from the store) in the ground and they took root! Not what they wanted or expected from them.

[@Yiriyah]

🤣

[@ismailrawat3100]

Happened to me too. So if the plant dies the bamboo will grow😉🙏🌱.

[@DaisyCreekFarms]

If it gets windy in your area, push the sticks in dirt atleast 6 inches, I had mine topple over in high wind.

[@cecilleflowerfarm]

Bamboo is really invasive! My neighbor has and it still my nightmare!

[@udalulus]

[@thegreengagardener]

There are two types of bamboo - clumping and running. The latter is the one that goes nuts, but clumping bamboo will self-contain. Now you know!❤

[@SmallGardenQuest]

My mother has this trellis system. Works great! BDW what are the variety of those tomatoes? They look sad :(

[@Yiriyah]

🤣

[@hands2hearts-seeds2feedamu83]

I am going to try this with limb sticks, 1 -2 inches in size. I have tomato cages, but they do not work well for cherry toms. And i will have to use what i have and that is small trees and limb wood and some string. I will have to use old Tee shirt to tie around my tomatoes, my string is to thin & will cut the plants, & i will tie the string to the Tshirt and then to the trellis

[@deirdreberger1363]

I love this!

[@ivanhristov1978]

Thanks for sharing 🙏

[@RystaHerrold]

Will the wind knock over the bamboo? I don't recall him pushing the sticks into the ground..

[@DaisyCreekFarms]

Yes, high winds will topple over the bamboo sticks. Push them in atleast 6 inches in ground. I had mine topple over in high wind after I made the video.

[@ahnaahna7278]

Because the old tree canopy has increased…..I have had to pay closer attention to the true full sun…..for tomatoes this summer. I had good luck last year.

[@prasadjavkar9854]

Can you give some greenhouse tips

[@AshWP]

Hi Jag! Thank you for the video! I followed the steps & trellised 4 tomato plants. One question though - what do you do once the plant reaches the top of the string? I assume you left two feet of string for some reason but I am still trying to figure that out. Any advice is helpful!

[@onskosbos]

You just make the string less taut - by doing this, the tomato stem will naturally drop in a spiral fashion (instead of the straight-up line), thus creating more vertical growth potential.

[@abdulsalim1416]

Nice info

[@rancakay613]

Hi Jack!! Great video.....again!!😊 just wanted to ask you, why you don't use raised garden beds? And do you have any bugs crawling into your bed when they are right on the soil?

[@stephanie5249]

Bugs don’t care much whether your garden bed is raised or not. I’ve never had (nor would I want) a bug-free raised bed.

[@itskvani]

Good work,Jag.. Every morning, the first thing I do is to look for a video from you but I know it's difficult to put up a new one every day..My daughter has started watching your videos of late and she keeps asking whether a new one is posted .So we watch it together .
