| So, I'm a newish veggie gardener, and this year has been absolutely awesome for the plants in my tiny little plot. One problem is that my cherry tomato plant (sweet 100) keeps pulling over the little 'tee pee' that I had trained the plant up. I just finally cut all the strings and removed the supports. Now I'm wondering if there is anyway that I can some how contain it in a cage; or if it's better to just let it sprawl. Thanks in advance! |

| Can you post a picture ? It is difficult to make changes this late in the game. What is you pot diameter ? Where is it sitting ? Do you have a cage already , what kind? S100 cherry is an aggressive vineing variety. I grew some last year. In a pot, you probably would need some kind of pruning to contain it. |

| It's in the ground... I'll try and get a picture this afternoon. at this point it's completely flopped over and taking over the plants next to it. I don't have any cages :( |

| I think you can carefully lift up the main stem and tie it to a pole or stake. |
