Do the EB trellis systems work well for large tomato plants? I've been hesitant to try them because they just don't look big/sturdy enough.


I've never used them, but others have reported that the earlier versions were just not that sturdy ( the connectors broke). They did come out with better connectors that seemed to be OK. Personally, I wouldn't use the EB system for large indeterminate tomatoes that can grow to 10 ft and be very heavy. I suppose for shorter plants coupled with lots of tying up they would be fine.
