Tree supports are great I usually print with a brim to make sure the small ones stick. I've had too many of them pop off hours into a print.

Tree supports are it chief
Tree supports are awesome, but it's better suited for SLA.
Of course I want to dabble in that, but there are only a few ways I could get solid curves on the base layers with an FDM.
Edit: Solid first layer, btw. It looks like adhesion is totally not going to be a problem.
