I use cages made from concrete reinforcing wire. It would take a lot of it to make 80 cages.
If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land. 2 Chronicles 7:14

2X4 welded wire, 4 foot tall stretched between T-posts, bottom of wire a foot off the ground.
I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

6' welded fence baskets. Rip a 2×4 .sharpen one end. Drive it up on the edge of the basket as far from the plant as the basket allows. Zip tie basket to 2×2 steak

I have panels that I use and cages too but I don't have near as many plants as you. Florida weave sounds good or something like birdcarver has got.

Be kind to one another and tell the ones you love that you love them often. We never know what tomorrow will bring.

birdcarver, that looks just like my set up. Easy up, easy down, plenty of places to tie
