Say Madam Bear, without wanting to offend you, they would not be a little "light" by chance your tutors?

Yes the staking of the tomato seems to me the most tedious thing for this culture, but with time and the various attempts I find that it is crucial (at least in my context). The tomato resembles a liana which appreciates being hoisted and raised. It is necessary to anticipate and plan, quite early in the season (when the soil is still very wet), for the beefy and which rises quite high (2m can be easily exceeded by certain varieties) because mine tomato develops over several months. The bamboo is not bad (choose the right diameter, not too thin otherwise it can break under the weight of the fruit, not too big to facilitate hanging on it, so I would say about between 2cm and 3cm). If you can't put them in the ground because you put them in place too late and the ground has dried up, I see 2 solutions. You can water the ground so that you can drive in your stakes. Or you always have the (smart) possibility of tying three stakes at the top, which forms a tripod (or a teepee) which will be stable on the ground without having to make a hole. The Spanish use this technique a lot and I think I will adopt it in my own way. 3 stakes instead of one per tomato stalk, this seems excessive, but if you drive your tomatoes on 3 strands ... You must also remember to bring what to attach to the stakes. Now, I buy sisal (in rolls, in DIY stores).MadameOurs wrote:No time, no tutors, no way to get them in the ground ... And like anyway until early August my little reeds were more than enough, I never imagined that everything would be collapsed when I came back!

In short with confinement I have few options left: cover with poop from a friend's horse, grass fed. She is not far away and on the way to the week's races.
Cover a little bit with a few reed straws, and too bad we will see well after confinement
Have me deliver Crau AOC hay for a luxury vegetable garden at a high price.
