<< Ruth, those three-ring tomato cages that aren't fit for tomato plants are
excellent for chile plants, and easier to use than staking. In spring we
can get the 3-ring cages for 50cents each, on sale. I also use them on
newly set out tomato seedlings for a final hardening off. >>
I buy as many of these as I can find at garage sales. I use them to 'stake'
shorter peas, to help support chile plants as Margaret stated, and as corner
supports to keep bird netting elevated around some seedlings.
