You are so awesome James! I'm 74 and am just always so energized and inspired by your videos. Please keep up the good work! And keep showing that adorable Tuck!!

Dude Tuck is an OG. I am really glad to see this channel flourish. I remember watching year 2 food forest updates when hardly any such thing was on YT. Much love and blessings brother

Your older bed you might want to replace the top board that holds the string rollers. I was using a 2x 12 as my top runner and after 4 years the weight of my tomato plants snapped the board in 2. This really sucked mid summer it was so hard to re do this when the plants weigh so much. Hopefully you do not have to go through this. Most of my plants didn't recover completely

Doesn’t matter what we do here. So many squirrels, the worlds best farmer. They pretty much take over our crop and have it for themselves.

you have an approachable demeanor that makes it easy to accidentally learn something, as you get more popular please do not forget that

I purchased these clips from your Amazon store two years ago. Thanks for all the awesome tips! You’ve really helped my gardening journey. Tucky too!

I love these clips. Along with tomatoes I also use them for for cucumbers and squash.

James you are the BEST gardening expert I’ve ever watched! You are INSPIRING and so full of LIFE! We enjoy you so much! And we adore Tuck! If you ever offer tours of your food forest we’d fly up to “Jersey” just to see it in person! Thank you for sharing your incredible knowledge! ❤ to Tuck!

Tuck is a trooper, even tho it’s hot he makes himself comfortable by diggin his hole. Mine dog does the same thing when I’m in the garden for hours .. gotta have mama best friend by your side

Well, that’s cool!

Great plan! I'm so glad to see you and Tuck. Glad he's feeling better 😃👍🐾

Time to make a nicer trellis this week for my tomatoes. Thank you & Tuck, the amazing Garden Guardian.🌱

I learned about this style of trellising a 1 1/2 years ago from another youtuber. Though I much prefer the roller version and how you secure the end/soil attachment. Seriously love those clips, And they Seriously cheap.

Great idea. Beautiful design. I'm on a fixed budget. I took the bench out of the adult swing I had. Used the frame & added garden netting for the tomatoes to climb. 4 years and still going great. Cost $10.50.

Great tips & clever trellising James. Space saving too meaning more tomatoes 🍅 👍🏻

James, you and Tuck show us how to work smarter, not harder. Thanks so much! 💖💝💓💞💕♥️💘💗 For Tuck!

Always learning from you James ! Tuck is looking for a carrot 🥕 ❤ Tuck

haha - "In the past I've used cut-up shirts.." I've got an entire box of shirts out back for tomato ties :P

Just ordered these clips and rollers. So stoked for this growing season.

Идея с клипсами для крепления интересная. Будем пробовать альтернативные способы из подручных средств. В прошлом году я придумал использовать зажимы воздушных шаров для быстрого крепежа шнуров к кольям.

Oh, dear James, you and Tuck are so wonderful. There are other youtuber gardeners that I like to learn from, as well. But, you have such a lovely spirit that it's a special joy to watch and learn from you. Thank you.

Awesome method. Now we can grow Tomatoes just like the professionals!

I live in Canada and I can't start gardening without first watching your video. You put soo much hype and energy into us. Thank you

Love to see Tuck. My 2 garden guards are very old. One is deaf, Neena, the other deaf and blind, Rommy. Makes me sad to think about not having them here. I will create a special place for them in my garden one day.

I use those clips too. I completely agree with em....just use these. Dont bother with anything else.....they are pro!

Tuck reminds me of our Yorkie, Teddy. He passed away after 17 1/2 years of love and loyalty. Give Tuck a chin scratch from Marvin and Marie. We enjoy your videos and tips.

Zone 6b. Great minds think alike. I'll be planting Roma here and there. I think two stakes and lace string back and forth a few times giving a place for sucker support. You encourage us to think outside conventional wisdom. ❤ to Tuck. We will be using your pruning method again for our cucumbers. Thanks so much James.

You are so motivating and a wealth of knowledge James, but Tuck is the star of the show and I look for him the whole time I'm watching! I have Pomeranians, but I would love to have a "Tuck" some day. He's fantastic! Long live Tuck!!! ❤

Your tomato trellis is quite nice. I just got a pack of 300 clips a few days ago

I just got my Guardian of the garden sweatshirt! I love it…I will upload a pic tomorrow when I am in the garden with it. Please give Tuck a hug from me, and tell him thank you for being here for us. Keep up the great content, I am on my 2 nd year of gardening and I am struggling but I learn something new every day from you…thank you! ❤

Back around 1979 or 1980, I was hired to work in a professional greenhouse where they grew hydroponic tomatoes. They had a similar system. Nice to see professional stuff spreading into the backyard/homegrown community.

Love your channel! When I grow my indeterminant toms they always fruit much lower on the plant. They eventually grow over 7 feet, but so late in the season that they aren't flowering as much.

James you are a person of many talents!. You can tell that you are very good at detailed observation/ almost like a scientist, plus you are a meticulous carpenter and have keen engineering and efficiency skills that inform your gardening techniques. I know studying permaculture adds to those skills. Love seeing Tuck and you every time you post. Thanks so much! :)

Really smart. This makes so much sense, and fits with what I know about commercial growing techniques.

Thank you James for all your knowledge and enthusiastic information! My husband, Doug and I LOVE ALL your videos🤩 We found your video on tomato clips and have loved them for these last 2 years. We have one difference though in that our garden pen had a fencing top about 2 ft wide and that is where the tomato vines grow. All the vines will lay and grow on top even the butternut squash! Also really help the heavy fruit to hang. This is just a welded wire. Again, thank you for ALL your education as we always learn something!

Mushroom basket tomato?!! Hope to see a tomato harvest video soon 😊 love for Tuck ❤❤❤

This year I tied a loose loop of twine around the base stem of my tomato plants instead of the wood and plastic clips. Worked great. I tried those plastic clip on my grapevines, the sun wore them out in a single season. I will never buy them again.

Thank you so much James!! This information IS a game changer for me!! I’ve never known about tomato clips. Awesome, I’m going to order some supplies!! Thank you again. Always love to see Tucker in the garden.

I’ve been using this method for years, love it

Thank you for showing this up-close. We use cattle panels and wind the tomatoes in and out of the panels and trim lots off the bottom. We did 45 plants last year 😮

Thank you for sharing this and all your gardening wisdom. You're Awesome! I love your enthusiasm! I have about 50 various tomato plants in red solo-type cups, about to be needing transplanted. I'll be giving most of them away. But, i really enjoy getting them started. I have to grow in containers, due to gophers or groundhogs, and due to back problems. Next year, I'll be growing container friendly tomatoes in my new GreenStalk Vertical Towers. Go Tuck ❤❤❤

Hi James! I love following along with you. Those tomato clips look like the ones I used on my grape vines. THEY DID NOT LAST ONE YEAR! They must not have been UV resistant and after a few months became brittle and started breaking. When I tried to remove them they would break and crumble. I hope the ones you have are better than the ones I had!

The clear plastic clips don’t last more than a season or two. The clips that are brown-red are much sturdier.

Charles Dowding says to bury the string next to the seedling roots when you transplant each seedling.

Nice to see that there are still gardens in the Garden State!

I have those same clips! Been using them to train my tomatoes and tomatillos on a 16'x4' cattle panel I have going down the middle of my two 4'x8' beds. I wanted to use the cattle panel as arch elsewhere next year. Now the hubby has another garden project to help me with next Spring! Also, I have some tomatoes in ground in separate area of our gardens. I did a sort or short version of the Florida weave. I'm 5'3" so trellises for some stuff has been a challenge! Definitely trying this next season! Thanks for sharing!

Hey Tuck.. Those clips are a great idea. The line holder is a great idea too. Glad you showed it to us

Home boy is growing tomatoes with commercial equipment on a residential lot.

Ordered some clips ❤❤❤ I've got some, but as many tomatoes as I grow, I need more. I'm trying the "trellis to make you jealous" this year. I hope this does better than stakes and cages. Wish me luck 🙏🤞

Merci pour les conseils, je ne parle pas anglais mais j'ai tout compris, je vais tester ça cette année pour mes tomates❤

I enjoy your videos and think the world of your pal, Tuck! Even though I've been growing tomatoes for 53 years, you inspire me. Be careful with bamboo. I've had fungal problems with imported bamboo. Better to split an 8', full size (rough cut) 2 x 4, than to risk fungal issues. Enjoy the season! ✌

Love watching you guys and all the new ways of gardening. Never to old to learn something new! I have been gardening for over 53 years 🤗

I'm Glas I found you. Thanks I love gardening but I can't do much because of my health. Much love to you and the family. Love the 🐕 tuck ❤

Tomatoes growing with garlic, wonderful.

I want to try the hook and wicket technique for my outdoor garden.

Your videos are so informative and you demonstrate and explain everything so clearly, you're an inspiration. Best gardening channel on KZread! And Tuck is the cutest pup.

So simple that it's legit genius.

God bless you & your family for all the wisdom & experience that you give on your channel!

Those roller hooks are cool. Prohibitively expensive for me though. I think I'll just loop the top end of some tomato twine over a nail for each plant and unhook it to lower the plant. Maybe even leave some extra twine with another loop to hold up the plant at the lower height while i work on it. I try to keep my garden spending as close to zero as possible

Wow holy crap those beefsteak tomatoes looked amazing. It was fun to watch your tips! Looks clean.

Thanks for showing videos of the leaning process. I have not seen it anywhere online and was so confused about what it's suppose to look like.

So few people know that the clips are supposed to hold onto the trellis string! Good work James!

I live in a coastal area and humidity is always a concern for me, stringing up my indeterminates greatly increases airflow and reduces powdery mildew. Maintenance is a breeze. (pun intended)

Tuck is the man. I like the new way you anchor your strings. In the past I buried the string under the tomato roots when transplanting. I also used a small bamboo stake beside the tomato plant and tied the string to it. I'll have to try your new way because it looks to be the way. Thanks.
