|    A different type of bean trellis    |
|    20 May 24 17:58:43    |
      From: Snag_one@msn.com               When I first planted the fruit trees out in our orchard I made these       giant cages of concrete reinforcing wire to keep the deer from eating       them - with a 30" top extension of stock fencing for a total height of 7       1/2 feet . Diameter is around 3 feet so about 9.5 linear feet perimeter       . I put 2 of these out in the garden today and planted Blue Lake pole       beans every 6" around the base . If this works like I hope it'll be like       18 feet of 7 1/2 foot trellis . And a whole lotta beans .        In other news , I got all the vine crops and the bell peppers in the       ground today as well as planting some okra and pulling weeds on the bulb       onion row . I shoulda picked strawberries today but they'll wait until       tomorrow , production has slowed a bit .       --       Snag        "They may take our lives but       they'll never take our freedom."        William Wallace              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
