Tonkin sticks, also called plant stakes, are thin but sturdy bamboo sticks which are widely used for their stability. They are ideal for horticultural applications, such as crop support for plants and flowers. Thanks to the minimal variation in diameter over the length of the stake, they offer reliable support. In addition, Tonkin stakes have a thick wall, which offers extra strength and the possibility for mechanical ground placement.

The Tonkin bamboo stick with a diameter of 18/20 mm and a length of 244 cm is perfect for supporting plants such as beans and tomatoes. This product can be picked up in Beverwijk. Whether you need one bamboo stick or a bundle, at Masters of Bamboo you benefit from competitive prices and fast delivery times.

Diameter: The diameter of each bamboo stick tonkin is precisely measured at the base, which is the thickest side of the stick. Because bamboo is a natural product, the diameter of this stick can vary between 18/20 mm. For specific projects we advise to select the sticks yourself to find the right size.
Natural Progression: A typical characteristic of bamboo sticks are that they have a naturally gentle gradient, the bottom is thicker than the top. With these Tonkin bamboo sticks, the gradient is approximately 5% per 1.50 meters, which contributes to the natural look and versatility.
Straight Bamboo Stick: Tonkin stakes are known for their straight shape. Although they are generally quite straight, bamboo remains a natural product, so 100% perfectly straight sticks cannot be guaranteed.
Vertical Cracks: Like wood, bamboo expands or shrinks with changes in temperature or humidity, which can cause vertical cracks in the bamboo. This is a natural process. These cracks do not affect the strength of the stick and are part of the character of the material.
Strong and Durable: Tonkin sticks are exceptionally strong and flexible, making them highly resistant to stress and long-lasting. They are ideal for structural and supportive applications.
Lightweight: Despite their strength, Tonkin bamboo sticks are lightweight, making them easy to handle for a variety of projects, from gardening to construction.
Sustainable Natural Product: Bamboo is an environmentally friendly material because it grows quickly and is sustainable. The production of bamboo has a low impact on the environment, making it a sustainable choice.

Support for vegetables, plants and flowers: Tonkin stakes are perfect for supporting tomato plants, rose bushes or other climbing plants, for example, so that they grow beautifully and firmly.
Guiding standard trees: Place Tonkin stakes next to espalier trees to keep them upright, especially in the early stages of their growth. This helps to create a firm base, which allows the trees to develop better.
Plant climbing frame: You can easily make a climbing frame from bamboo for your plants. This is ideal for guiding roses, climbers or bean plants. Tonkin stakes are light and strong, allowing you to create a sturdy frame.
Kitchen garden and vegetable garden: Use Tonkin stakes to support vegetables and fruits such as tomatoes, beans, peas, cucumbers and grapes. They ensure that your plants in your vegetable garden grow upright and do not fall over.
Bamboo hedge support: If you have a bamboo hedge that is sagging due to rain or snow, you can use Tonkin sticks to create a framework that will hold the bamboo in place. It looks natural and provides the necessary support.
Building with bamboo: Tonkin sticks are also widely used for construction projects, for example during team building activities and children's parties. With tonkin sticks, rope or elastic you can easily build towers, pyramids or other shapes. Due to their light weight, the sticks are easy to handle, which makes them ideal for creative construction projects.
Insect hotels: For making insect hotels, the Tonkin bamboo stick is very suitable. The hollow inside of the sticks offers a perfect hiding place for various insects. By sawing them into short pieces, you can easily fill an insect hotel.
Making Bamboo Flutes: Bamboo sticks are often used by music lovers who want to make their own bamboo flute. Their strength and hollow structure make them ideal for making this traditional musical instrument.
Bamboo fishing rod: The Tonkin bamboo rod can be used as a fishing rod for various fishing techniques, such as float fishing, bottom fishing or even fly fishing with lighter hooks.

Here are some ways you can work with and use the bamboo tonkin stick:

Cut: Simply saw the bamboo Tonkin stick to the desired length with a fine-toothed saw. It is best to use a Japanese or bamboo saw. This ensures that you get a neat cut with minimal splintering.
Tie with rope: Use strong rope such as Manila or palm rope to tie the sticks firmly together for garden constructions or supports.
Secure with elastic: Elastic is ideal for quickly and flexibly attaching poles to each other.
Drill holes: Make small holes in the sticks to secure them with screws or wire.
Varnish or oil: Treat the sticks with varnish or oil for extra protection or a nice finish.

These tips make bamboo tonkin sticks versatile and easy to use for a variety of projects!

Treating Tonkin Sticks

Tonkin sticks are often used in a natural way, such as in agricultural horticulture, in allotments, as support for plants, for building and as an insect hotel. This means that treating bamboo is not necessary.

If you want to protect the Tonkin stick, you can apply Bamboo Booster Oil.

For the part of the bamboo that is placed in the ground, the choice can be made to treat it with Bamboo Ground Protector.

How Strong is Bamboo?

Bamboo is remarkably strong and durable; it is often compared to steel because of its high tensile strength. This means that bamboo can withstand great forces without breaking. This property makes it ideal for applications in construction, furniture, and other products that require robustness.
