Tie'em up

Had to go to the store today to get some accessories for tomatoes. Many of my tomato plants are getting huge, and aren't supported well enough. This is the first year I've really gotten tomato plants to do anything other than die. That being the case, I did some very poor planting and staking. Several of my tomato  plants are large and now toppling over. We went and bought 2 tomato cages and a pack of bamboo stakes and ties. While making a stake line for our Yellow Pear tomatoes one of the plants broke. (So the Kid fed it to Jeff, her adopted Horn Worm.) Our Yellow Pears are approximately 3 feet tall.

Next, we staked up the Yellow Cherry tomato. This plant is approximately 5 feet tall. It has produced some delicious fruit and still has plenty of blooms and fruit growing. Then I staked one of the Black Krims. This plant is 5.6 feet tall and huge! It has blooms but no fruit. This is the same plant that led to the dreaded Wasp sting! IT HAD BETTER FRUIT SOON! Then I staked the other Black Krim that had fallen ...and couldn't get up.

It rained this evening, after I watered the plants. It keeps doing that.
