A plant support collar for supporting plant stems includes a central frame. The collar further includes a first hook member and a second hook member extending from the central frame in different directions. The first hook member and the second hook member each have a free end, the free end together with the central frame defining a passage for accommodating plant stems in the respective hook member. The central frame includes a support area configured to abut an intersection of the stems.

A crimper for managing the growth of a plant by controlling the position of a branch of the plant over the course of the plant's growth. The crimper includes a shaping tool and a growth control member. The shaping tool includes a gripping section and may also include a handle section, wherein the gripping section includes a first member and a second member, wherein the first member and the second member are curved in the same direction. The growth control member is arranged for placement about the branch of the plant, wherein actuation of the shaping tool causes the first member and the second member to squeeze the growth control member into a fixed curved shape about the branch of the plant.

A connector device and method of use has a first member and second member that, when connected, securely hold two points on at least one object in place. The device has a first member with a hook at a first end and a hollow receptacle at a second end. A second member has a hook or other terminating point at a first end and a threading on a second end with a length and teeth. The first hook attaches to a first point on at least one object. The threading on second member enters first end of receptable and out of a second end of the receptacle, held securely in place via a tongue at the second end of the receptacle that catches a rib at a desired length. The present invention and methods may be used to bring two points on at least one object closer together to provide support and stability.

The present invention provides improved attachment devices fort support lines in plant growth support systems (e.g., trellis systems) and methods of using the same, and offers significant improvements in efficiency with regard to assembling, adjusting, and disassembling the support systems for plant and crop growth. The attachment devices may be advantageously used for various vine and low-lying plants (e.g., grapes, tomatoes, etc.) that can be grown in a trellis system or other vertical growth support system. The anchoring devices may include a wire loop for slipping over an end support bar and a wire strainer bracket attached to the wire loop.

Apparatus and associated methods relate to a quick coupling plant support. In an illustrative example, the plant support bracket may, for example, include a body with a first and a second side, where a coupling member on the first side is configured to releasably couple a pliable object. The coupling member may, for example, include a head with an interior aperture and peripheral walls that deform to securely attach to the body. The coupling member may, for example, include a band that may be secured at multiple predetermined points across the body for adjustable positioning. Various embodiments may advantageously include padding on the opposing side of the head to protect the pliable object from damage. The plant support bracket may, for example, include opposing jaws actuated by an urging member on the second side of the body to secure the bracket to a support member in a crossing direction.
