Earthbox trellis issues

Hello,
I'm new to this forum and am looking for suggestions for my garden next year.
As a Rutgers master gardener intern, I decided to expand my garden this past spring.
I added 2 more Earthboxes so I could grow indeterminate tomatoes instead of my
usual patio tomatoes. I live in a co-op complex where crops must be grown in containers. I'm not a fan of the commercial Earthbox trellis system. I need something
that is sturdy, reliable, and aesthetically unobtrusive (is that possible?). I wound up putting 6 ft vinyl-coated metal stakes just outside the containers to support the plants when my bamboo stakes didn't hold up to blustery winds (and lots of twine). Better but not perfect. HELP!

Hi, there. A couple photos of your set-up would help for giving you suggestions. Would your co-op permit table top beds? Would they count as "containers"?

Hi NJG. Welcome to the forum. Sanderson's got a good idea, if they'll allow it...
