Yes, use whatever you have at hand. I can't afford all that expensive
'tomato paraphenalia'. We start out with cages, some small, some bigger. I
use strips of old t-shirts, etc. and whatever metal bars we have collected
from various places. Including old water pipes. Then I call them "tomatoes
in bondage". They seem to like it.
