Square Foot Gardening List - http://www.flinet.com/~gallus/sqft.html

Thanks, everyone, for the tips on harvesting eggplant.  Maybe you can help
with another question.

My tomato plants are about 7 feet high.  I have them tied up on 6-foot wire
climbing racks, and they stick up over the top.

The other day I went out and found the tops of two of my four tomato plants
stripped bare.  It's the sort of damage I associate with snails -- bare
stems.  But, it's only the top foot or so.  I can't imagine that a snail
would climb 6 feet and eat the 7th, then climb down again.  It's the
strangest thing I've ever seen in a garden!  Any ideas?
