ok. Thanks. I will grow most of the plants in hanging baskets.

I grow on black plastic mulch stretched over ridges of soil. The smallest of the low tunnel designs I have seen has an 18 inch height. I had the crazy idea that the hanging basket varieties would grow to completion in a space that size. I think the vines can touch the plastic and be ok.

If I can find something to grow profitably in the 18" tunnel, I could buy the machine to lay the low tunnel that is pulled behind a tractor, and then grow hanging basket cherry tomatoes by the acre.
