Come learn how to make the best DIY tomato trellis and training system. It’s sturdy, tidy, effective, and looks great in your garden! I say “best” in jest… but I really love this system, and hope you do too!
In this video, I’ll show you how to make a simple tomato trellis with stakes, twine or string, and a support frame. We’ll also go over how to prune and train tomatoes up the trellis during the growing season - using a hybrid of the Florida weave and single leader tomato training methods.
Moderate pruning keeps the tomato plants manageable, easy to harvest, less prone to disease and pests, and compact enough to fit companion plants around them. This tomato trellis works best for indeterminate or vining varieties of tomatoes.
Wishing you a fantastic tomato season and harvest ahead!
