K-Brands Tomato Cage – Plant Stakes and Support with Clips (3 Pack - Upto 72 inches Tall)

I’m really pleased with these plant supports. I have used them to support tomato plants which are growing in pots. They were very easy to put together, and the upright supports can be extended as the plant grows. A really good idea, as before I was trying to tie the plants to canes, which were very wobbly.

With a later planting of veggies this year, we decided to stick our cucumbers and tomatoes into pots so they were in sight and mind. The tomatoes have been growing fast, and this tool has been perfect for promoting vertical growth and (hopefully in a couple of weeks) helping separate the plant for easier picking. The parts are made of sturdy green plastic, which seems to work well so far and look nice. I was surprised as all the parts came loose in one box, so be mindful of that and open it over a rug or somewhere visible so you do not accidentally lose something when you take everything out. Some rods with shallow cone tips are supposed to be used as the base to stick into the ground. I tried to use this, but as my dirt was pretty loose, this feature didn't really matter as the other poles can be stuck into the ground as well, and the coned ends can still be slotted into the brackets to extend height so you are not loosing out on pieces. One of the best and most cumbersome features is that you can customize the height and shape of the rods with the attachable brackets. The suggested shape is a triangle (triangular prism), but I also created a pentagon shape for my cucumbers based on the pot size. There are brackets with three slots to hold the rods together, and though it can take finagling to figure out the best spot and avoid the vertical connectors, it was a pretty straightforward process. As my tomatoes grow in height, I have even taken some of the bottom brackets used to separate the leaves and moved them upward to arrange the top leaves, which is a nice feature. The cucumber pot does not have much verticle growth, but similarly, I have used extra brackets to arrange the leaves so they are more accessible for picking along with support. I have little experience growing produce in cages—maybe some pre-done cages from the store—but not much. It seems more helpful to other cages because of the versatility of its structure, though it may take more time to set up as a lot of them are fully done. With this, I have really enjoyed this product, and I have ordered more for other parts of my garden!

Facile à installer, les pieds de tomates ont donnés une belle récolte malgré 2 mois d'absence, donc sans entretien.

I was originally looking for a specific product to provide support for my Monsterra Deliciosa houseplant. It was out of stock and not known if more coming in. I looked at other plant supports and thought this might be perfect, and even better original item. This one allows me to put it together bit by bit, one level at a time - perfect for my large plant. I currently have it at 2 posts high, and when the plant reaches a higher level, I’ll add the 3rd level of posts. The product comes with enough parts for 3 triangular plant supports. However, I found it worked better for my plant to create a square one. As it is, it appears to be staked firmly in the pot and very sturdy. Perfect for what it was intended to do!

Good for the price
