    Ok. Spending the day reading as I don't feel well enough to go in the garden.

    When it says trusses, does it mean branches? Do the trusses need support also?

    Thanks - need clarification to feel confident.

    Trusses are the long stems that grow from the main shoot and have flowers on them, the flowers will turn into the fruit. No need to support them unless you are growing massive beefsteak types.
