Traditional cages are fixed height, awkward to store, and rarely support plants exactly where you need it.

This Stackable Plant Cage System was designed to be modular, expandable, and accessory-ready, so you can build the exact support your plant needs throughout the season.

 

What’s included

 

Main Cage Sections (160mm diameter, 100mm tall each):

  • Base Section (Ground Spike) – stakes into the soil for stability and has stack ports on top for the next layer.
  • Middle Section – same structure as the base, no spikes, designed for clean stacking.
  • Top Section – finishing layer with no spikes and no stack ports (clean final cap).
  • Standalone Ring – for shorter plants when you don’t need stacking.

Accessories (clip-on anywhere)

  • 50mm Hook – clip it onto any level to hold branches, twine, or plant ties.
  • 80mm Hook – same idea, longer reach for heavier/higher growth.
  • Stem Guider (Center Clip) – clips onto any level and helps guide the main stem to stay centered and upright.

Why it’s different

  • Scales as the plant grows (stack more rings anytime)
  • Accessories clip anywhere (support branches exactly where they droop)
  • Print only what you need (small plants = one ring; tomatoes = stack taller)
  • Easy to store (rings stack nicely in the off-season)

Default size is 160mm diameter, but this design can be scaled up for larger plants or buckets.
