They are made of metal coated in plastic.
Each stick measures 140cm (approximately 55 inches) in height.
The sticks are 1.1cm (approximately 0.43 inches) thick.
They are best suited for supporting individual plants or forming smaller structures like cages. For very large or heavy structures, more robust materials may be needed.
This is a bumper pack containing 80 plant support sticks.
They can be used for making plant cages, supporting peas or beans, and creating barriers with garden netting or fleece.
Yes, the textured surface is designed to provide a better grip for plants, netting, or fleece, helping to keep them securely in place.
Ensure the stick is inserted sufficiently deep into the ground. If supporting multiple plants or a structure, consider using additional sticks or reinforcing the connection points.
Utilize the textured surface of the sticks to its full advantage. You may need to secure the netting with plant ties or clips for extra hold, especially in windy conditions.
These sticks are designed for medium support. For heavier plants or structures, consider using thicker stakes or multiple support sticks arranged in a sturdier configuration.
If the plastic coating is significantly damaged, exposing the metal, consider applying a rust-inhibiting sealant or replacing the stick to prevent rust from spreading to the plant roots.
Setup: Simply insert the pointed end of the plant support stick firmly into the soil near the plant requiring support. For structures like cages or trellises, group multiple sticks together and secure them at the top if necessary, depending on the application. Ensure the stick is pushed deep enough into the ground for stability.
Compatibility: These sticks are compatible with most garden soil types. They work well with netting, fleece, and twine for added plant support or protection. They are suitable for use with a wide range of common garden plants, including vegetables, flowers, and shrubs.
Care: Clean the sticks with a damp cloth to remove soil or debris after use. Store them in a dry place during the off-season to prolong their lifespan. While the plastic coating offers protection, avoid abrasive cleaning methods that could damage the coating.
