The product comes with a 1-year guarantee.
The plastic coating is designed to be durable for outdoor use and is UV protected to resist degradation. Like any coated product, extreme misuse could cause damage, but standard garden use should not cause peeling.
Ensure the stake is pushed deep enough into the soil. For very soft ground, consider using a stake hammer to drive it in further or pairing it with a wider base support if necessary.
Verify that the connector clip is fully engaged and locking both stakes in place. Ensure the ends of the stakes are inserted fully into the connector tube.
Use soft plant ties or garden twine to gently secure the plant stems to the ridged surface of the stake. The ridges provide a good surface for ties to grip.
Setup: To set up, simply push the stakes firmly into the ground near the base of the plant you wish to support. For taller plants, use the provided extension connectors by inserting the end of one stake into the connector tube and then inserting the second stake into the other end of the connector. Secure the connection with the provided clip. Ensure the stakes are positioned securely to provide adequate support.
Compatibility: These stakes are ideal for supporting a wide range of plants including roses, peonies, delphiniums, dahlias, tomatoes, beans, cucumbers, and other climbing or tall-growing vegetables and flowers. They are suitable for use in garden beds, vegetable patches, and pots.
Care: To maintain the longevity of the stakes, periodically clean them with water to remove soil and debris. The plastic-coated steel is rust-proof and UV-protected, requiring minimal maintenance. Store them in a dry place during the off-season if desired, though they are designed for all-weather use.
