Good to Know

For indeterminate selections such as cherry tomatoes, staking is an ongoing process because their vines continue to grow in length, yielding fruit all season long. Determinate selections, on the other hand, get only so tall and produce their entire crop at once. Be sure to stake or cage tomatoes soon after you plant.
