 Tomato Tower - How to Use
A wonderfully easy way to grow the best tomatoes with the least trouble. The Tomato Tower's 14.5" diameter by 6 foot tall cylindrical 100% nylon net is large enough to contain all but the largest tomato vines. The tomatoes are kept off the ground for best quality and least amount of rodent and moisture damage. It keeps the tomatoes pristine clean and labor is just an occasional tucking in the straying vines. It saves time by eliminating the need to tie up vines.
Assembly Instructions:
Made up of 6 parts - One easy-to-drive 18" ground stake and three additional stake sections (stakes labeled 1-4) and two hoops with netting attached.
• Drive pointed end of ground stake (#1) approximately 10" into the ground. Use a rubber mallet if available.
• Connect other 3 sections of stake by pushing the open end of capped section #4 into the top end of section #3, then #3 into #2.
• Placing one hoop on the ground, push stake #2 through center hole of hoop until it stops at the lip near bottom of stake. Keeping that (bottom) hoop on the ground with one foot, pull other (top) hoop up, stretching netting taut, until you can insert the top part of stake #4 through center hole of top hoop.
• Insert bottom extension of stake #2 into ground stake (#1), As tomato plant grows, pull vine/fruit through netting to keep off the ground.
• To protect seeds, seedlings, and upright plants, elevate netting 6" or more above the ground using stakes, wire, etc.
For Best Results:
• As plant grows taller, tuck vines in and around netting; no need to tie.
• Keeping fruit off the ground helps prevent rot, insect or rodent damage.
• Extremely strong nylon netting is non-burning to plants and will last up to 20 years in full sun.
• Reusable - collapses for compact winter storage.
