It's a good idea to support your tomatoes, keeping them off the ground. This larger support will work well for the Tycoon tomato which is supposed to have larger tomatoes.
HEB Plus (grocery store) has better prices on tomato support. This larger support was only $2.44, while the smaller cages from Home Depot were $2.78. It may not seem like much, but if you were to buy 5 it would be a savings of $1.70.
It's recommended to keep the garden well watered the first few weeks so that the roots get established. Here Macey is gently watering the young plants.
So far I've spent about $50 on soil, support, plant food and plants. Next year the costs should be much lower.
