Best tomato crop

This year my tomato plants won't get burnt in the hot summer sun.
Some people use big umbrellas or old bed sheets. A bit cumbersome.
Imagine my delight at finding a triangular (3.4x3.4x3.4m) heavy duty shade cloth at a garage sale.
Just 5 bucks!
(Actually, I gave them $10; it was the woman down the street.)
My delight was a bit short-lived during erection.
That triangular shape was a bit tricky, especially finding the right spots to tie to nearby trees.
Anyway, its up, well before the onslaught of the hot weather.
The tomato plants are doing well in this hot period.
It's going to be a great crop.
The best looking plants for years!
