Tree tubes in general work great if in the right location. From my experience, tubes should be placed in sunny areas not in the woods under tree canopy's. I've tried both plantra and miracle tree tube. The plantra tree tubes are flimsy and need to be staked all the way to the top. The holes for the zip ties/twist ties to connect to stake are to big. Mice get through the hole and make a nice cozy home for themselves and kill tree. A solid miracle grow tube does not need to be staked to the stop and have smaller ventilation holes near top of tube. I commend your efforts and wish you the best of luck, hope you're successful.

stakes should be on the outside of the tube for easier installation/adjustment/removal and to give the tree more space to grow.

Are the tubes reusable after the 5 years?

I pull my tubes off before the tree branches out too much then replace the tube with a bark protector which is about half price of the tube .Once the tree grows too big for the bark protector from Plantra I surround the tree with 6 ft of welded wire fence .I get several trees protected with each method of protection .Remove the fiberglass stake as soon as the tree will stand up on its own .You might need to keep it with the bark protector for a season but remove it before the tree grows into the stake or you cannot pull it out .

A length of rigid conduit with a threaded end cap should do the trick...and be affordable/available. Verify that the conduit has an inner diameter sufficient to fit over the given stake.

It would be helpful if you provided a link to the kits you're selling. As it is, it doesn't matter if I'm interested, because I have to go searching for you
