    I use the wire fencing for my pole beans. It works perfectly. Btw, it takes ages and ages for the rust to break the fencing and rust is not harmful to your plants or you. I’ve never had a problem with it and the beans rarely complain. When they do complain I just smack them around because I’m not a fan of whiney beans. :)

    yaye, perfect video for some inspiration on verticle trellises (and now I really want some apple trees too… hmm)
    I wonder if there is some sort of non-toxic paint or something you could put on that remesh…? possibly worth looking into for those who like the idea but not the rust ;)

    I was told that only the tips can be eaten raw. I didnt think the whole leaves tasted that good. I dont know if I would juice a large quantity of them.. I would prefer to juice other greens.

    how do you spell that french word of growing a tree flat, i’d like to see if i can do that with a meyer’s lemon tree.

  12. mreisma on Mon, 11th Jul 2011 9:13 pm 

    hey john, have you ever juiced the chayote leaves? i buy the tips at the market but i was wondering how the big leaves tasted.

    I’ve been wanting to see a video about different trellising, thanks! If you come to my place, please don’t shake my trelises.

    Thanks James. Sometime I dont know all the technical names. I bought them once, I personally didnt like how they rusted.

  15. jamesdt02 on Mon, 11th Jul 2011 11:08 pm 

    hey john. the concrete grids you refer to is called re-mesh. awesome video as usual. thank, James.

    I agree. the “hog fencing” or livestock panels are the best, but get expensive. Thats what I use and reccomend the most..

  19. Michigansnowpony on Tue, 12th Jul 2011 12:10 am 

    As usual, great video John! Stock panels (for livestock containment) come in a variety of heights and grid spacing, are 16′ long, won’t rust, are heavy duty, and retail for about $24 each. I’ve grown squash and melons on mine — they would easily support tomatos as well. You can find them at Tractor Supply Stores (TSC), and other farm stores.
