I am in central Indiana and always have the best luck with these. There’s three in this planter and they are 8’4” tall right now. I water daily, but no fertilizer or anything on them. They’re planted in the same Miracle Gro potting soil that was used last season.

I just transplanted one. I hope mine shows off, too!

How do you get them to stand upright? Mine are approaching 5.5 feet and I’m concerned they might fall over during some strong winds/storm. They’re about 2 feet above the tomato cage now

To the moon! 🌑

Holy crap, why are yours so strong and tall? Mine are nearly falling over and they’re like half that height.

When finished growing this sweet 100 was over 14 feet tall and over 6 foot round had tomatoes top to the

bottom. I used 2×4 ‘s and 2×2’s for stakes. Been using rabbit manure for over fifty years in my gardens.
Are these worth topping at 8ft to mange better?
