    It would be awesome if you posted an updated video for this project in the future (how well the strawberries grew since they were sideways, what to do when the plant produces runners, and how well the tube held up during the season). This is such a cool idea!

    Well, I did my research and galvanized containers are safe to grow in. Soil should be around the neutral range which won’t deteriorate the zinc coating, stock tanks have been used for years and years and and still in great shape.

    Great idea, I sent the video from yesterday to my daughter because she was looking for something different to grow strawberries. My husband really likes it too. He said that you should use a deburring tool to remove the burrs (sharp pieces) from the drill holes. It would make it a lot safer and may not even need to wear gloves while planting if you remove the burrs first.

    If you take a rubber tube and slit it down one edge you can clip it around the rough edge of each hole and it will make it safer for planting and harvesting from it for years to come - natural rubber is non-toxic, or I am sure you an get food grade soft plastic tubes but I don’t know where - maybe in wine making kits or similar? Anyway just an idea xx

      If worried about not getting water, you could put a small tube or pipe down the entire middle, with a few tiny holes to let water drip out slowly.
      If worried about that area getting too much water, could ask drainage holes.

    PVC rigid pipe as been food safe since the 80. The NSF already has standards for food and water safety. Just make sure it is NSF code on pipe. When you hear toxic from pvc they are taking about pipes before 1977. The FDA has approved PVC for a while. Galvanized metal is actually worse than PVC.

    Cute idea but you should probably make a video showing the actual on-going maintenance that will need done with this setup. I'm guessing some people won't know that they're going to have to maintain them regularly by trimming the daughters (runners) and replacing plants as they get old. Cutting the runners is no big deal but I wouldn't want to have to replace a failing plant in one of those tubes. Lol.

    I might try this hanging method; but I would try using the tubes that are sold to pour cement in ;I believe they are available in 6 inch and up. 2 good reasons, the main one would be the heat transfer from the outside of the tube to the inside should be minimal. And , as important I think...those heat duct tubes would probably start rusting pretty quick, as they were not designed to be in contact with wet surroundings...Just my opinion

As another user commented, a zinc/heavy metal toxicity can occur but it would have to be very acidic in order to strip the chemicals. People use stock tanks all the time for garden beds so I’m pretty sure they’re perfectly safe.

      This isn’t remotely true. Even with the small amount of zinc and cadmium leaching the plant itself would have to take it up and you have to consume it... A strawberry plant isn’t going to suck up non existent lethal doses and deposit it in the fruit. Likewise it’s completely safe to use treated wood these days since they are copper treated and no longer arsenic based.
