actually I have since my last pics posted planted 15 bales with two tomatoes each. Im trying a few new varities so one bale equals two of each variety im growing. Im starting the last eight bales tommorrow and they will all but two planted with tomatoes also the other two will have bell pepper. I too am employing the concrete wire and tying them to it as it grows as did the guy in your pics. on a side note when I went to my garden todayi was plesantly surprised that my farmer friend had not only delivered one truckload of busted straw bales but three dumptruck loads oh the things i will do with all that straw I have already started putting it around each of my 300 tomato plants and plan to use it around my squash,melons, cucumbers and in betweem my rows and whats left i plan to pile up an plant melons in the rotted remains next year....I would only put two maters per though three might get crowded...I hope to update my blog sat or sun so check back..Gene
