Re: Trellis construction

Square Foot Gardening List - http://www.flinet.com/~gallus/sqft.html


A simple trellis structure I have used is made of three 2 x 2s eight feet
long, two posts and one crossbar. The posts go in 1 to two feet, leaving 6-7
feet of height above the ground, and the crossbar is held in place by
drilling a hole just slightly larger than a large nail and dropping said
nail in place, on either end of the cross bar.

Illustrations of this simple thing are to be seen in Shepherd Ogden's Step
by Step Organic Vegetable Growing.

I especially like the ease with which you can put it up or take it down, and
thread trellis netting through the crossbar and then just put it in place,
popping in the two nails.

Frank Teuton---noting that there is always another way, just pick what seems
best to you....:-)
