Update on Marigold Tomatoes

 Well I thought it was time to give everyone a quick update on my Marigold Tomatoes.  You remember the tomatoes I thought were Marigolds and planted as a border in my raised beds.  Well, I had to thin them to just four plants instead of ten.  I probably should have thin them to three but they look to be doing well.  I staked twine down into the soil then spiraled the twine up the tomato plant attaching it to the top of the Squash Arch to act as support.  Then as it grows I just twirl it around the twine.  Because they are on the inside of the Squash Arch they really don't get much wind which is good because this isn't what I'd call a real sturdy support system for the tomatoes.  However, it is working pretty good!



I was pleasantly surprised that the Marigolds Tomatoes are Roma's of some sort.  One can only have so many cherry tomato plants.  I've been pretty impressed with how well these Marigold Tomatoes are turning out.
