the extensions have been added to the tomato poles. 14' is it unless i decide to get more creative. i have all five 14' poles tied off to each other and to the fence for stability. just saw a lady look up and see my shirtless sweaty fat ass standing on a ladder looking closely at my big zac blossoms at 9'. she had the look of disgust while i had the look of joy. lol. i found double fused megabloom at 9 feet open today and had to give her a shake on a windless day....the flower that is not the lady. lol. to see a 270 lb shirtless man in shorts all sweaty and hair sticking straight up standing on a ladder above the six feet perimeter fence looking like he is sniffing a flower on a 10 foot plant as i was trying to get a close look...yep that sight might make it to the dinner table convo this evening. lol. also found what looks to be a triple segment megabloom at 6' on the 5.58 timm x self. sad news is the gordon grahams keep splitting very early on and have a shiney darkening color near the blossom that goes straight black eventually. had to pick the only one left today and hopefully the daconil and calcium will control the disease or calcium deficiency which ever is causing the blackening. the plants have been hit with quadris daconil and quilt at different times so not sure what is causing the blackened rot on that tomatoes and had one on the big zac number 1 the same way. the rest look fine. getting excited about the 1147 recovery and recent vigor since removing the pumpkin. vines are thickening up nice and leaves getting respectable size. in 10 or so days their will be plenty of new plant also help to support a female to grow of semi-respectable size. this will be an interesting fall plant and it is fun having to train vines again.
