I saw people fighting with cages. FStaking is sooooo much better....my opinion. I used 1'x1"x3' wood stakes and then attached 6' ft plastic coated steel stakes to the wood stakes.

As the tomatoes got to be monsters, I tied the tops of the steel stakes criss crossing to support everything. It worked.

Wood stakes should be tossed. Wash down the steel stakes with clorox wipes or rubbing alcohol before you store them away.
