Trellis
Yesterday I was youtubing about building trellises for pumpkins and I chanced upon a video on My Square Foot Garden... interesting how they build trellis to grow climbers in order to do space saving... And guess what! I saw the exact replica of the trellis on the video on my neighbour's cucumbers this morning!! LOL
This trellis, by right, can stand on its own 2 legs.. my neighbour's supported at the top as well. I guess if you drill the poles deep enough, it should be able to hold it. The one that I saw on the video is using wire conduit? Not sure what is that as it is based in US. I guess we can use the same - the bamboo version instead. I would need to get some nylon strings to start building one.... But, where to plant my pumpkin?? Hm.... need to look for a place.....
By the way, the video that I saw, there are so many hanging pumpkins on the trellis! Its amazing..... space saving indeed and you can keep the pumpkins clean too!!
