On a similar note as the concrete mesh, farm stores sell cow panels with 6 inch squares I believe. They are heavier than the mesh and come in 16 foot lengths. You can cut them and make a row cover or make a trellis out of them. I've seen some permanently mounted that way.
I can't remember if the cow panel is galvanized. I don't think the mesh is. Is it?
Great idea. Concrete mesh tomato cages. Keep us posted on how they work for you.

I had a problem with slugs. I tried using beer but it didn't work, until I gave it to the slugs.
