My tomato cages

[Organic Mechanic]

I'd like to share the tomato cages I built last year. I only built two to see how they worked after I had problems with the purchased wire cages collapsing. They seem to work really well even after having a wind storm that knocked down half of our corn. I already started making more for the next grow season. The cages stand 6 ft tall and only take two 2x4x10's cut in half to construct. They fold flat for storage. As luck would have it an 18 gallon tote made into a self watering container fits nicely into the bottom suspended off the ground. I plan on testing this set up come spring.
