So, what is Florida weave?
Someone above mentioned it and I looked it up. Basically you drive vertical posts in between every third plant or so and weave string in and out, in and out. When you come back the other way, you weave on the opposite side of each. I tried it for tomatoes and it held them really well. I also added a leaning post/stob at each end so I could really make it strong and tight. I heard that this is the way commercial tomato growers do it. Anyway, apparently it works for corn as well. Here are some images of it:
