    I recommend using metal zip ties instead of plastic. Plastic zip ties don't last long outside in sunlight.

    Love this guide. I am inspired now to do a spreadsheet. I am tech oriented and I like to be able to add/delete lines without doing the whole thing over again. You mentioned the seed company you use, but not the name. I am in the NW, Zone 8b. I would like to use a local seed seller.

    Or you could just buy a post driver at Home Depot and return it when you are done.

  • @joeleming9605

    This is sorta what I was thinking. How did it hold up? I'd say use worm gear hose clamps instead of the zip ties.

  • @AwesomeActer

    Do you leave it up in the winter? I know a lot of cattle panel people take them down but this looks a bit more permanent

    I fully agree. I do, live within five miles of two places that sale soil and mulch but I don't have a truck only a Prius and thats not going to work. I do drool over the prices. You can get so much for much less but unless I make a friend with a truck it won't happen.

    Lovely! I feel the same way about hardening off. 😂 Zinnias are my favorite! I did Rosemary and lavender from seed the past two years, and I find they are the trickiest to get going! I told myself I would always buy them at the store now. Haha! Super cool Titanic chair! Never seen that before. 😊 You’ve done a great job with your space! ❤️ Happy Spring!

    Hi. I just came across your channel. I live in Quesnel B.C. I am a single woman who just bought my first home and have the task of building a garden from scratch as it is just flat land. I have two massive lots. I love that you are so very down to earth and do not perform for the camera. I noticed your picket fence. By chance can you do a quick video on the size hight and close up of it to see how they shaped the top of the fencing. It's cute as a button. Cheers

    • @CalliopeFlowerFarm

  • @indecisivegardener
    @indecisivegardener Před 3 lety

    Cute puppy! Have you used grow bags before? I'm going to use them for the first time this year. What have you found to be the pros & cons with them?

    • @CalliopeFlowerFarm
      @CalliopeFlowerFarm Před 3 lety

      Yes! This will be my third season with them. They're fantastic! They can be a little harder to clean than traditional pots, at the end of each season I vacuum most of the soil off and then throw them in the washing machine on high/heavy with some oxy. If you leave them outside like I did the first year, they can get pretty bad stains/algae over the winter. Pros are that they drain amazingly, provide air circulation & can be easily packed away/moved.

  • @blackpackhomesteadchrisand7337

    Puppies are fun. I have a feeling that is going to be a great dog.

    Thank you for this! I’m also in Canada and cattle panels here are about $78 whereas a 100 foot roll of wire fencing I can get for just over $100. This will help me put together a trellis. Money does matter, especially for how many plants can be grown.
