They can even be used for indeterminate tomatoes!

    i have used this for my beans in my raised bed sqf garden and it is a great method for trellising what would normally be a plant that takes up a lot of room into small spaces.

    I love the tepee trellis. I use it a lo in my garden. I am going to put some up for my sweetpeas. I will also do some later in the year for my cucumbers and snake beans. Love them.

    Great information Stephen. That is one of the reasons we grow bamboo. Best wishes Bob.

    I see how to improve my conduit frame I use for my blueberries. The teepee method looks like the way to go for my beans.

    Nice tip Steven, I never seen that kind of tomato netting, where did you find it?

    • @AlbertaUrbanGarden
      @AlbertaUrbanGarden  8 років тому

      its just a nylon grid type and I have seen it at most garden centers but usually only the dedicated ones unlike a home depot or something. I dont have the name of it though. Sorry

    • @elysejoseph
      @elysejoseph 8 років тому +1

      Thanks my friend, probably because I never looked for them, I'll keep my eyes opened ;-)

      They are handy and reusable ;)

    I cut down about 9 or 10 8ft tall Box Elder saplings a while back. NOW I know what to do with them.

    Is it strong enough to hold cantaloupes?

    Very nice! I will try that next year. Do you happen to know any contraptions that keep well meaning acquantances out of the garden? I'm having such a dreadful year with them this year. They seem to totally ignore closed gates, closed doors and written signs of no entry/do not disturb. "well no, that doesn't apply to me, i'm a friend!". Yesterday one of them ripped out all my native herbs and threw away the mulch as a 'surprise' and then turned my cottage patio i have worked years on to establish, into a well scrubbed urban parkinglot when i was away for just one morning. Even the few native wasp orchis didn't survive the onslaught. It's never the strangers who cause trouble. It's the friends and acquantances doing the most damage, trampling and pulling at every darn thing! I've locked the gate now. What a shame i need to be a prisoner on my own soil just to keep it safe. I'm just devastated. I wish i wouldn't feel so bad because she meant well. :(

    • @AlbertaUrbanGarden
      @AlbertaUrbanGarden  8 років тому

      That sounds horrible. I usually just tell everyone whom goes in there if it's alive it has a purpose. Some times its purpose is to get pulled later but I don't specify !

      Send her a bill for the store bought herbs that replaced the ones she tore out! How rude to just assume she "knew" more than you!

    • @AlbertaUrbanGarden
      @AlbertaUrbanGarden  8 років тому

      lol that is a more direct method ;)

    My indeterminates are over 2m tall and nearly uncontrollable even with the stakes.

    • @AlbertaUrbanGarden
      @AlbertaUrbanGarden  8 років тому +2

      In that case I would train them back down the side of the teepee.

      How do I get real Bamboo stalks(about 2 inches thick) to stay in the ground? They will not just stick in the ground?
