The cucumber fence is ready to go! I have planted cucumbers on fences and bush types in rows. I will NEVER plant cucumber without a fence support ever again! (my opinion) Always put your "wall" at the North end of your garden. This year I used bamboo poles as my supports and the netting is manufactured by BURPEE. I really wanted to try these nets because they were not metal and they were affordable at $4.00 each and I used 3 for a 30 foot run. In front you can see where I am experimenting with my soaker hose which will be used throughout my ENTIRE garden this year. Like the Butter Beans' soil, it will be tilled and fluffed before I plant. |
