I know swallows build their mud houses on bridges over rivers very close together.Quote:The way you trellis the beans with poles and boards reminds me of the community and home gardens in Fiji. They trellis sweet potatoes on poles like that.
I love to see your garden pics, keep em coming
The problem was that where I put the trellis thing there was not enough sun My trees block too much sun back there so I've moved my whole garden.
Today with my grandkid I planted three kinds of gourds I think other than for fun they are pointless but I think I like pointless sometimes.
I also planted cantaloupe, watermelon, a bell pepper and other stuff.
I made a bird house out of a dried out pumpchini that's the bomb
