Has anyone purchased the 'crop prop' accessory? It is a tomato cage made specifically to fit into the City Pickers grid.

I've purchased a total of four now. I don't know the specs for a City Pickers grid. However, I set mine up in front of the house near the driveway where I get the best sun and having four raised garden beds in the back yard. These have been very useful for many of my tomato plants. The restricted root growth may yield less fruit but is perfect for those who may have limited space. All cherry size or Juliet tomato plants do well. Put simply....love it!

I read a review that it did fit with prop guards attached, but ours does not fit and there's no slot to carry the prop guards in the case. The case is incredibly well built otherwise though.

From what I have seen in my garden, the product has remainded fibrous after two growing seasons. I have no idea how it has decomposed in the yard, but it does seem to help with the water requirements. My garden vegetable, especially tomatoes, seem to grow better. I will be continuing with my yard experiment for the next few years.

I had a fairly large pumpkin in it, & 2 10 gallon plants in it. It did fine as long as it stayed still. It falls apart if it is moved, weight or no weight in it. I have one wheel that totally fell apart.

Nope...broke mine. Had to go buy a "pickle" Jar at grocery store. Fits fine.

I haven't, but this cage is pretty big. I'd go for something smaller, maybe something built for the bmpcc.

The base part of the planter is flimsy. no better than the Home Depot planters. I ordered because of the 7" high dome cover. The cover is OK but not extremely heavy. I have 2 brooder house reflector type lights laying on top of it with fluorescent bulbs. I have 4" tomato and 4" pepper plants. I had trouble with the soil drying out, so I put water in the bottom tray under the plants. Unit is a bit pricey, but I ordered it for the heat pad and high dome, cannot buy high dome locally and the total price is about the same as a heat pad locally. Hope this helps.

I am sorry I did not know that Champion had a tomato sauce screen, I will check into that item. As far as the large hole strainer it does let more pulp through than the standard strainer, but it may still be too fine for tomato sauce. I haven't tried making tomato sauce with the Champion Juicer yet. I have had my current Champion for over 20 years and it is still working fine. If you were to put the cover on the bottom and puree the tomato out the end it might make a very nice tomato sauce.

It is a rather generic amalgamation that is a bit closer to the Civil War cap lock. The stock is too narrow and not terribly sturdy; I wouldn't recommend it for any recreation groups. It *might* be an acceptable base for something like Steampunk.I didn't throw mine away; I still have hopes of re-purposing the stock at least...

It doesn't play in tune. Durable yes to use as tomato plant prop in the garden hehe.

I'm not sure if the B2B food strainer is like mine, and I don't have a salsa screen. What are you putting through that has seeds coming through? I use the regular screen for apples and Autumn Olives and it comes through very satisfactory. I have a berry screen, but it didn't do as well for Autumn Olives, and I've not used it for anything else. It's supposed to be good for tomatoes, but I like my old fashioned cone shaped sieve and wooden plunger for tomatoes. Sorry that I can't tell you more.

I do not! But I can tell you I LOVE this thing! Its amazing how well it keeps my veggies and is saving me money from not having to throw food out! Its perhaps one of my favorite food storage containers ever! In fact you remind me, I really should get another one!

The components are formed using a composite material of some sort-plastics no-dought. We have used ours-we have 10-for several years. They are tough and don't seem to be disturbed by the weather. We own about 10 acres and will NEVER grow our vegetables any other way again. We have a specific way we do it Would be happy to share at the request. Good day!

I was going to get one of these, then I came across an unused 24" plastic planter in the garage. Flip it upside down and it works fine as a pooper stooper thingy. Easier to stow out of the way too, when not in use.Like this, but they're under $10 at Walmart: Novelty 16242 Countryside Planter, White, 24-Inch Length (Discontinued by Manufacturer)

I used small tomato cages with the legs bent or cut in half & a small bunge cord to secure. That worked just fine. The plastic side bracket looked weak, so went with the cage. Go with the corner poles.

Sherry Miner's response is correct. The rack is excellent and works perfectly for plants. I now have two of them.

I tried doing concord grapes with the tomato screen once and it clogged up like that also. The extra screen kit is great because that doesn't happen. Worth the money for me!
