Thank you all for your positive reviews. Yes staking and pruning give you the option of more plants per square feet. I haven't tried trellising or cages yet. Are them a better option? Bacterial spot and leave miners hit the plants early in the growing season I thought I would not be able to get a harvest. But I did a aggressive spray schedule and I manage to control bacterial spot. BTW the plants feed with tomato tone were more resistant to this disease. I also happy that people here can understand my English. Lol
