Hi Kathryn

There's a drawing about halfway down this page:  http://www.finegardening.com/how-to/articles/supporting-cast-for-tomatoes.aspx

Here's another:  http://csa.amandadevries.com/?p=86

This one has clear, simple drawings:  http://www.foogod.com/~torquill/barefoot/weave.html


I haven't used this system before but it's definitely the way I'm going to go this year.  I think I'll use t-posts...anyone have thoughts about that?

Can anyone point me to an online photo of this system?  I'm trying to picture it and I think that would work really well for us but there are a few details I'm still going "huh?"  We've used vertical lines hanging from an overhead support system which works well, but it's a tedious system to put up/take down.  This approach sounds quite a bit better......
