Karen, a question about your growing setup -- I see you're using stakes AND cages, do you add a top cage later or is that your typical setup, bottom cage and stake?

I ask because I didn't get enough tomato cages this year -- I usually zip tie a top cage onto the bottom cage, then zip tie a stake to the outside of the cages just to keep the setup from toppling over. This year I have enough bottoms, but not enough tops -- and am wondering if I need to go get more, or if I can just tie the main stem off to a central stake with just the bottom cage and hope that's good enough....
