Has anyone found reasonable tomato cages on-line? I'm looking for a pack of 15, metal round cages about 4 feet tall. I found a pack of 25 at Ace Hardware Online but its the closest I can find. Anyone have some tips? I've looked locally and can only find 5 ft ones for 5.50 a piece! I need 15, but don't want to spend $75. Any tips?
If I can't find them cheap I guess I'll look into buying some steel fencing from a local building supply store and make my own. (last resort)
If you can get them cheaper than Burpee.com ($7.50 ea), then watch the shipping charges!
You can make one for free with scrap lumber and baling wire. My local Home Depot cuts lumber for their customers and their customers throw out odds and ends in a big bin. Pickin's from the bin are free. I once made a chicken coop with scrap lumber and some baling wire.
Please answer my question (thanks): "Best Tomato (s) for North Texas"
7.50 each? for 15 thats $112 way more than I want to spend. Sorry I know nothing about What grows in Texas, and this is my first year growing so I really know nothing about the types.
