What is the diameter of the spike?

I don't know the diameter but it's not large; it looks like a pretty average nail

These spikes are 1/4" in diameter. I also got the stake "puller" which was a neat helper.

So, the rule is 1 spike per inch of TRUNK DIAMETER, not the limb circumference. My peach trees are ~10 ft. tall, have about 3" diameter trunks and 8 foot limb spread (~100 inches) and I feed them with 3-4 spikes each. Its kind of confusing because it says to place them around the drip line (limb diameter), but the number of spikes is figured from the trunk thickness (in inches). You'll need a caliper (micrometer) to figure, I bought a Hornady brand here on Amazon for $18.

yes the spikes can be removed. The height is about 13". not sure the height without spikes. My rough guess would be about 0.5" shorter.

It is about 1/2" across the top, but then tapers to half that, as the spike narrows. It is about 6" long. I am using this with five different house plants. It really does a terrific job. I am pleased with the purchase.

2 rings go in tubing for sturdiness but still don't understand what the spike is for

About 10!ins. To the bottom os the light. Add about 4 1/2 for the light. Spike is about 6 in. Excellent lights. Not plastic, so you can easily replace nubs. The tops screw off easy. Mine still work in rain, ice, cold. Looks good too. They are real large. But nice size.

I'm not sure about the diameter, but it can be baffled. I cut holes in a 2-liter soda bottle and put the main pole through it about three feet off the ground. Works great.

There were 7 spikes in the package and I used them all when I received them, so I'm afraid that I don't know the answer to the question.

61" from the mounting plate to the foot (spike not extended). I used it recently as a walking staff on a a tough hike with 2000 vertical feet of elevation change over very rough terrain. It functioned perfectly as a staff and a monopod. Bullet proof ,IMHO.

It was a gift for my mom so I don't have it here but I am guessing it is approx. 2"-3" in diameter.

The rod measures 0.173" diameter. The knurled tip measured 0.1935" diameter. Hope this helps. WLJ

Hello, I'm not sure of the diameter; I purchased a set of stainless dowels from Amazon- Norpro 3660 Stainless Steel Cannoli Forms, Set of 4. I didn't even think of the diameter and they worked great!

It is approximately 2 1/4" in diameter. You could use a small dowel rod or a rather large one.

Gilbert, you only cut off a tiny piece of the end. I've used these spikes for years when I go on vacation.depending upon how much water you'll need you can also use a 1 QT (liter) bottle.I only use mine around my peppers and toms. while I'm gone for about ten days!need more info just ask. Len

Thank you for asking! I was going nuts also trying to find the diameter! They appear to be maybe a 4" or even larger in the photo!

Approx 8 inches. The lights are great! I installed them last year and they are still going strong. They look like lights that are $50-$100 each. The only drawback are the plastic spikes they attach to. Although they are much sturdier than most, they still break. I cracked one hammered them into the soil. And another snapped off when my dog crashed into it. Nothing you can do, just be aware.
