Awesome video. Thank you 😊
You’re welcome! ☺️
I built my cattle panel trellis's with raised beds inside so I could cover the trellis with greenhouse plastic in winter and use it as a green house and then in late winter and early spring as a large cold frame for starting plants.
Great idea - you can cover/uncover as the seasons change.
Be sure and do a video of the cucumbers when they are being harvested so we can see how they grow on this neat trellis! 😄
Literally going to take your build idea and putting it into construction next weekend. Love the trellis idea with the cattle fencing, thinking of arching it over the middle cut out so it feels like you're walking into the back of the build. Planting Cucumbers on one side like you did and tomatoes on the other so the trellis can function for two veggies or more. Been researching this project for close to a year now and your videos have been immensely helpful and inspirational.
Awesome!
Thanks for the idea of a cattle fence as a trellis!
For those cucumbers that are touching the soil, put a fluffy layer of mulch under them to get some air under them.
Thanks for the tip! 😁
Very clever idea! Thank you for sharing! ❤️👍
You are so welcome! Thanks 😁
Awesome idea!
Glad you think so! Thanks! 😊
Nicely done !!
Thanks so much! 😁
Very Nice, I like how it saves the back.
Yeah, we have really enjoyed this setup :)
Very nice. I'm going to do this once I live where I can have a garden again!
That would be great! :)
Thanks for sharing you creative knowledge, love this, my cucumbers need this now!
Thanks so much! :)
Great video, thanks.
Thanks so much! 😁
What a great idea! I've been looking at utube for such an idea.
Glad to hear it! Thanks!
Fantastic! Thank you! :)
Thanks! 😁
Very helpful 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Thanks, I appreciate it! 😁
Tyfs 😁💯 great video
Thank you so much :)
You can also remove some of the leaves to increase sunlight/air circulation
Thanks for the tip!
For most of us, the hardest challenge in building such trellises is to bring the cattle fence home. Only TSC carries them and they don't deliver. 😔
That’s true, this is very long and won’t fit in cars.
I had the same problem. I found Lowe's carried cattle panels and they would deliver, it was cheap to get it delivered, but that was my only option. I also figured it was something I was probably only going to need to do once so I could live with the price.
Buy a $70,000 pickup truck 😂
My local TSC delivered my 16' cattle panels here in Jacksonville Florida. It did cost $36 for the delivery fee, but that was for as many you wanted delivered for that one price. I love TSC.
@@aytviewer2421 in California the delivery fee was $99
Recommend taking it out over the winter and bringing it inside. My metal fencing definitely rusts. Or, try getting some oil and rubbing it on the metal so that the water whisks off it more readily. Great job!
They are galvanized. No rusting.
Look like u do so much easier, I like it
Thanks! 😁
thank you for giving the SKU! makes things 1000 times easier!
👍🏻 Thanks! 😁
Can you please share the SKU?
Thank you for a great idea! Can you use this for tomatoes? I bought those cones thing but they’re sucked.
NOOICE!
Thanks!!
Got an extra Subscribed for ya
Thanks so much!! 😀
Wondering what you did with the extra cattle panel.
I used it as a trellis for some pole beans. Works great! 👍🏻
Is this trellis also suitable for grapes?
Can you share where you got your panel from? How many gauges?
I’ve had a couple hanging out in my yard for a couple years. They have rusted something terrible. Is that still ok to use for the food plants??
What gauge is the cattle fence?
I know this video is 6 months old, but as a suggestion in the future (if you haven't done it yet, still binging): Maybe the intro of the video(s) can be what the finished project will look like, then a "this is how I built it..." where you start like normal. This would give a preview of what the final project is rather than just looking at the thumbnail for reference =)
Love the Idea! I will try to incorporate that in future videos. Thanks!
Can you please make a separate video how to make soil bed which i am seeing in this video.
Great looking beds, nice trellis , bad reasoning on growth tho
Thanks so much! 😁
Love your trellie, where did buy yours?
Thanks! Tractor Supply.
I have a crazy question... how did you get the cattle panel home? Do you have a 16ft trailer? I tried to buy this product from tractor supply and a pick up truck wasn't going to cut it. ooops
Very good question! I have a pickup with an 8ft bed and I asked the tractor supply employee how people normally do it and he showed me how. I was able to have it standing up on end with one end starting at the right side of my tailgate and went to the front of the bed and made a half circle and came back to the left side of the tailgate. With a few straps or bungees I was able to keep it safely on the bed.
@@SimonSaysDIY oh thank you! we tried to get the piece and our local tractor supply wouldn't help us figure out what to do next. so glad you responded with such great detail
I just bought some and in my 6' truck bed I just made a u shape. The short side was in the vertical so it was approx 6-7' long.
You don't need a 16-foot trailer. The panels bend in half into a horseshoe shape (as seen in the video). They will fit into a U-Haul trailer or big enough pickup truck the same way, but laid on its side. Strap it down for safety. I've seen it done both ways.
Exactly!
Do you find with the higher beds it prevents animals from getting at stuff? Not sure if you had any issues when you had the lower beds or not. I have a woodchuck that loves tomatoes.
Yes, We did have some groundhogs that would bother our garden from time to time and we no longer have any issues. It also has much less grass and weeds that grow up.
Thanks!
Squirrels climb & can jump 4+ feet, groundhogs climb, deer can jump 6 feet high. Just to name a few.
What the heck you made it look so easy
3 years later and this panel is $36. That is a 50% increase. I wonder what could have caused the price of everything to jump this much?
Yeah that’s crazy!
Bidenomics. Have you noticed everything has skyrocketed since he took office. Notice the price of lumber, eggs, milk and really all groceries. It’s called inflation. That’s why interest rates are so high. No one wants to build a new home, When it’s built then to pay for it the interest rates are so high on your home loan. Can’t wait to Vote in November!
The PLANDEMIC and the globalists agendas2021/2030/2050!
Greed
Bidenomics !!
If the cucs turn yellow, the plant will quit producing and die. Nice trellis
Can I do this as a walk under trellis.
Yeah, you should be able to if you get a longer planner or attach two together. 👍🏻
About how many cucumbers did you plant there for the trellis? I’ve never grown them
I planted 3-4 plants. The spread out like vines and filled the whole trellis.
Thanks! :)
I just came across this video, in which he created very similar beds as I built. I made three seed mounds over the five foot width on each side of the raised bed next to the cattle fence. Two mounds are near each end with one mound in the middle. I planted three seeds in each mound and then kept the best two in each mound. They are doing spectacular! I planted my seeds in late February and at the end of April I started harvesting my first slicing cucumbers that are now 8-10" long. I estimate about 65-70 days from seed to first harvest. I have a couple dozen more that will be ready to harvest over the next week and many smaller cucumbers forming now too.
I expect many cucumbers up until the pickle worm/moths start hitting me in mid June (bummer). I will pull them all out by early July and let the bed stand empty till mid August. At that time I'll make new mounds and repeat the process for a second period of harvests up until late November or early December. In case you're wondering, I am in Jacksonville, Florida.
I installed my cattle fence before adding any soil (and logs on the bottom) to my beds. I simply kept them uncut and pushed them down to the ground. End result is that they stick up about five feet at the top of the arch of the trellis above my two foot raised beds. In other words, they peak about seven feet up in the air.
What gauge is that? My Tractor Supply has only 4 gauge wire and I don't think it will bend like that
I’m not sure but that sounds right. It’s really stiff to bend but once you do it stays in place really well and supports the vines really well.
What if the plants out grow the trellis area? Usually they grow a lot and faster too 😞
You can prune it back and let a new branch grow up. I haven’t had many issues with over growth but I cut 4 feet off of the fencing panel and you could always use the full length and it would make it 2 feet taller.
I didn't realize those were that flexible. I don't have a truck, so haven't even considered buying one.
So no clamping the vive?
I found that it will climb up on its own if I help it out and wrap it around the trellis once a week or so.
Do you have an estimate of how much soil it takes to fill up your garden bed? and what was the cost to build it? Thanks!
Reading the comments and noticed your question. My son and I built the same raised bed as in this video. Mine is 15' x 5' and is 3' deep with dirt. When I had soil quoted to fill my raised bed it was estimated at $900.!!! That wasn't going to happen. Also, soil and water become very heavy and bow the bed. I researched a few things and came across a method, I'll get back to you on the name later, of filling your raised bed with anything you have around the yard including dead weeds, tree branches, old dirt, bricks, and even 2 liter bottles. Anything to take up space and also save the land fills a little. You really only need about a foot or so of good gardening soil and compost. Hope this helps
Here in PH, I attempted to use metal trellis, but I discovered that doing so injured the plants on sunny days.
Where I can buy the I item?
I got this at tractor supply but it should be available at local feed stores or livestock supply stores.
@@SimonSaysDIY did you get it in store with a truck?
Ok son is there a fallow up video to this. I am curious if it worked and was sturdy enough.
They're sturdy. I have them in my 2 ft high raised beds. I cut them into 3 ft sections and used hog rings at the top to connect 2 panels making a A-frame. I grow rattlesnake pole beans or sugar snap peas up both sides. You can keep the bottoms closer together or spread further apart and if you have a raised bed, plant in the middle as well.
I'll bet you could do that with zucchini
Yeah, that should work great!
Has the trellis rusted yet?
Thanks! 😁 not yet. The metal is galvanized so it should last a long time before rusting.
I've had mine 4 years. No rust yet.
This can work for tomatoes
Melons? Peas? Etc...id assume?
Works for sugar snap peas. I assume any pea as well. I grow rattlesnake pole beans on mine.
Yes, the uncut 16-foot panel (at ground level) holds the weight of various melons, pumpkins (small to medium), and winter squashes.
how on earth is this almost $40 where i live a year later?! GEEZ
Inflation :(
My cattle panels didn't bend easy
Too expensive- they cost $100+ here
For those cucumbers that are touching the soil, put a fluffy layer of mulch under them to get some air under them.
Thanks for the tip!
