Ultradog MN- A few weeks ago I posed a question about using 16' hog panels to make a 'trellis'. Then plant half-runner green beans along the bottom to see if I got more produce instead of just planting the beans in a row. Plus, I hate being stooped over all the time picking beans!
So, I figured I would see which produced more beans....a straight 30' foot row of beans on the ground or a equivalent 30' rows of beans on a 'trellis'.
You mentioned that you would like to see how that turned out.
Since then, I may need my extra hog panels but, I found the next best thing. I have a 10x10 by 6' high dog kennel that I raised 6 Giant White turkeys in a couple of years ago.
I'm sure the litter has composted enough to make for some fertile ground.
My plan now, to plant a row of half-runner beans around the perimeter of the kennel to equal 30 feet.
Maybe it might be the same amount of beans harvested but a whole lot easier picking....
