Gartering tomatoes is an important agricultural technique that has a positive effect on the health of tomatoes.

With the right garter, you can get a good harvest regardless of the growing location - greenhouse or open ground.

If you have ever grown tomatoes, you will have noticed that they can grow without support.

Let's pay attention to the recommendations of the expert of the online publication "Belnovosti" and agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh.

What are the methods of tying up tomatoes?

Here are 3 ways.

  1. Single support. The simplest method, in which you just need to install a peg at a distance of 10 cm from the bush. As the bush grows, you need to tie it up every 20 cm.
  2. Cylindrical wire frame. A wire cylinder is erected and several bushes can be planted inside it. It is best suited for determinate tomatoes, which grow compactly and densely.
  3. Garter to a trellis. A vertical trellis is installed above the bushes, which is great for greenhouses.
