Be a little more specific at any stage you can cage em remember when you transplant seedlings to stake them if you start seedlings indoors have a fan blow on them before going outside if you have the seedlings started outside wiggle the stock between your fingers to tell it to get that stock sturdy!

Big tomato cages work well if you're in the ground, I grow in 10gal pots myself so I'm able to move my plants to a more sheltered location if need be, like the lee side of a building.

I'm in a condo and grew on my balcony this past summer despite gale force winds at times. I staked the plants but also fashioned a wind screen from an old screen door. Really worked well.

I use the black truckers tarp with metal stakes drove into the ground works really well at breaking the wind ......I also use several large bamboo stakes and green garden tie on the plants themselves ....I like the black mesh trucker style net because it's durable and since it does have tiny holes in it the wind doesn't beat the shit out of it and rip it ......yet it stops any harmful amounts of wind getting to the girls ...GL
