Plant stake mount

thingiverse

I'm conducting an experiment over several weeks to investigate how varying light durations affect plant growth rates. To achieve this, I've assigned 8 lima bean plants to each specific duration to ensure accurate results. To facilitate straight growth and simplify measurement, I plan to position a stake adjacent to each plant, accompanied by a ruler attached to the stake. For seamless connection of a 1x2 board to the stakes and rulers, I designed and printed a custom mount. The design incorporates several features:\r\n- A corner guide that securely attaches to the top edge of the board\r\n- A hole for a sheetrock screw, allowing the mount to be easily attached to the board\r\n- A stake-through hole for convenient plant support\r\n- An adjacent guide slot where the ruler can be precisely positioned
