Training and supporting your tomatoes correctly is essential to help you get the best possible harvest from your plants.

It’s important to ensure that tomatoes get enough air circulation and that the fruits are well supported to prevent branch breakage and slug damage. Correct pruning and training gives your plants the airflow and support they need to keep them productive and healthy.

In this video we explain how to choose the best supports for both bush and cordon tomato plants and show how to make inexpensive homemade tomato cages.

Training climbing vegetables up supports is a great way to get maximum yield from minimum space. Building your own supports is easy, fun and can make an impressive feature in your garden.

If you’re growing climbing peas, beans, cucumbers or any other vining plant, you’ll need to build supports to help them grow skywards. Providing support also means you can pack more sprawling plants such as squashes and melons into your space by training them upwards instead.

In this video we demonstrate how to choose the best supports for your garden and give step-by-step instructions for creating the ultimate pea and bean frame.
