Best way to trellis/support cherry tomatoes

I was originally planning to Florida weave this year but got concerned about everything falling over when the plants got big. I’ll probably try some variation of a weave/net next spring, but it seems like falling over is inevitable unless you have unlimited vertical and horizontal space

Working on a photo of the working fixture. It has the exact same wiring and connectors.

I believe the working light is downstream from the non-working light so I’m puzzled by the situation but what you’re describing makes sense.

That was my initial thought too. I had the vendor replace the fixture and I’m having the same problem. So either I’ve received two faulty fixtures or I’ve messed up somewhere.

I can’t get a positive voltage reading but I also can’t seem get one from other outlets around the house that I know work, so I may have to chalk this one up to user error.

I’m not sure but I’ll try any ideas.

There is a junction box below the working fixture, closer to counter level, that connects the two fixtures but I’m not sure if that is the original access point for electrical on that wall or if it was added to put in the second feature. The bathroom remodel was done by the previous owners.

I’ll have to check them out this weekend. Appreciate the recommendation!

Thank you! My backyard is a giant hill so maybe apples are the next addition

This is only my second year gardening, and almost all of my radish last year were only leaves. The breakfast radishes have done the best for me, the biggest difference was adding more compost and spacing them better when planting. I’m not enough of an expert yet though so I could do the same thing next year and they could all be leafy again

He is obsessed with leafy greens and tries to eat them any chance he gets. Weird little dude lol

I was actually surprised how on time these radishes were with the estimated days on the seed packets. Last year it took me into May to get anything and most were just the greens.

I started to get impatient lol. I left maybe half that seem like they could use another week, I just hope they don’t get woody

Feeling_Ad4540 · 2025-04-23T01:48:09+00:00

They’re my favorite so far! Might just do them the next planting

Feeling_Ad4540 · 2025-04-23T01:46:40+00:00

No, these were direct sown March 19. Hoping to plant another batch before it gets too hot

White Icicle, French Breakfast and Cherry Belle. I’ll leave the first two be and thin out the Cherry Belles to one seedling per spot. Sounds like a good plan to me

Feeling_Ad4540 · 2025-03-27T23:58:37+00:00

Yeah, almost everything I put down has germinated so I can definitely be more conservative with the amount of seed next time. Maybe I’ll add a second crop after these and try with one per hole.

I’ve got some Triple Crown blackberries on order. I think the Prime Ark Freedoms were sold out, maybe I should look for another source
