Kevin and the Tomato Stalk

Not good gardening techniques.

Some of you with a green thumb will probably have a laugh at this. I know I'm not growing these things right. It seemed like a good idea at the beginning of summer to use the tiny bit of ground we have to put in a few tomato plants. They grew wildly beyond my expectations. Mostly leaf and little fruit...at least right now. I've tried to contain their wild ambitions with wire stakes. Are they supposed to get this tall and leafy? Some of you that know better might give me a pointer or two.
