I'm also experimenting this year, havin...Jenn,<br /><br />I'm also experimenting this year, having found the cages didn't do the best job of containing my tomatoes in our tiny space. I re-used some of them on what I thought might be my smaller plants...not that you can really tell early on and when you think you know, mother nature teaches us we don't.<br /><br />We're trying new stakes this year...3 poles with rungs in between that can be adjusted. So far, so good. I'll have to let you know our opinion later in the season. I've still got a few that need to be staked/caged but will probably go old school with wooden stakes and fabric strips...what I wouldn't do for some bamboo!!!<br /><br />OOOOH our green zebras are taking off. I'd be happy to save some seed for you if you like. Your tomatoes look AWESOME! As always, your green thumb rules.<br /><br />All my best & Happy Gardening!!<br />HeatherRetrogirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10741020926731255804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6334419665943546355.post-90243492071070888732010-06-25T16:32:30.241-07:002010-06-25T16:32:30.241-07:00One man's trash is another man's treasure!...One man's trash is another man's treasure! You make do with what you have! In some cases I have those old wire cages -- which we mostly use for pepper plants now. And then we have the re-usable PVC for the tomato cages. This will be my third year for PVC cages. Other than one cracked PVC elbow -- I've been able to use them year after year after year!Bill Birdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11816389236294882066noreply@blogger.com
