This weekend I finally finished the trellis for my tomato plants.
It was very simple and only took two supplies, garden string and roll of garden twist ties.
Boyfriend had already hung the cucumber trellis so it only took a few minutes for me to make it longer and create a grid for the tomatoes. After creating the grid I used the twist ties to attach the grape tomato plant to the string grid.
The Better Bush, regular sized tomato plant, is full of new fruit. I didn’t want to disturb it too much so I didn’t add the vertical string through it.
After finishing my task I was rewarded with a great summer lunch - the tomato I picked last weekend to ripen inside the house. I picked some of my basil, sliced fresh mozzarella and enjoyed my first tomato of the season.
I only wish the squirrels didn’t beat me to the second tomato. Or my green pepper.
I’m looking forward to the grape tomatoes ripening this week.
