Wish they were 6 footers tho, that's my only gripe, the better boys will outgrow them late in the year but we prolly still avg. 20-25lbs. per plant per year.
Dallas, have you thought about doing a "Florida Trellis" for your tomatoes?

Do you irrigate?
Any squash borers?

Yup...I laced a 75ft soaker hose thru each row of my tomato plants when I caged them & I have 1 between my squash & zucchini, 1 between my beans & another between my pepper rows...
Checked for borers this a.m. found 1 zucch with a borer hole in the stalk base, pulled it up. I spray the bases of the squash & zucch weekly with a commercial insecticidal soap but the 15 minutes of rain I've been having every other day has decreased it's effectivness.
I've been getting squash & zucch's for a week now so I'll prolly get another 3 weeks worth before they are spent. Fingers crossed I can keep the borers at bay until then...

Dallas, time for update.
Also one of my tomatoes, the biggest healthiest one, started getting the crispy browning leaves. Educate me.

Google tomato blight damage, powdery mildew damage & tomato russet mite damage & see if any of those fits the bill...
