Staking late in flower

Couple of the girls got skipped on cages and staking.... winds getting a little rough today.... including the smart pots they're about 10-12 feet off the ground. I'm thinking pvc shoved onto the side of the pot might be a little flimsy for the top colas.... but considering half inch schedule 40 with holes drilled so I can easily run plant tape through.... bamboo seems hard to tie off to.... any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

schedule 40 would work though bamboo works fine if its staked good

If you don't mind ripping the pot a bit poke two holes in the side of the pot weave a bamboo stake in the holes/pot you can do this on both sides and put up a trellis net if needed

Drive in a t-post at the edge of the plant and wrap fencing around it. Drive in another a foot or so from the stalk and tie her to it.

what these guys said. If all else fails, lay her on her side ,(I used a tarp to keepdirt off her) once the winds die down pick her up asap.

Thanks ended up just buying I think they were 8 foot plant stakes and a shit load of green tape. Well see how it holds up over night.
