Fruit/vegetable slings or supports

I've grown a tomato in the gh called Burlesque. It's fruiting well and the fruits are big, so big that one has fallen off because it was too heavy for its stem. Unfortunately the fallen fruit is green but in order to stop this happening with the other trusses does anyone have any ideas or experience of trying to support with slings like with melons? DIY preferable but I'm happy to buy summat

I’ve heard of tights being used. Put the fruit in one foot , tie the other to something. Then they will stretch as the fruit grows. I use old tea towels as hammocks for my trombs and other squash. I tie string to all 4 corners then find something close by to tie the other ends to. Sometimes I tie 2 corners together. It just depends on location and shape of what I’m supporting.

Try using the mesh you get from supermarket oranges. Cut it open carefully then use that to support fruits. 

Also, keep that green tomato and put it in the kitchen to ripen. I found a lot of green fruits on my beefsteak tomatoes outside when I was tidying up in late autumn and brought them inside even though they were totally green. It took a few weeks, but they all ripened and were delicious.

You're a mind reader Garrett. As a temporary fix I've used an orange onion mesh bag with bits of string to support the remaining truss and the green tomato is currently cosying up to a banana in a paper bag. When we get some sun I'll give it a breather on the windowsill.

I thought about tights, I'll have a rummage. It's so long since I've worn them they'll be in a bottom drawer somewhere.  Also found some organza in the sewing basket, I'll try fashioning something from that.  I'll have the best dressed toms in the village    perhaps not say that phrase in certain circles
