WHAT. rude.
Whatās their rationale?
They owner spent a lot of money on grass turf and the body corporate approves of that look and not the pots on the grass.
I have options available to me in regards to a place to move them to. It is just a matter of finding something to transport the bigger pots in as they donāt fit upright in the Outback and I donāt have a trailer anymore.
Nooooooooooooo
I canāt wait to see what you achieve once youāre on your property and donāt have to worry about rental shit anymore.
Same. Looking forward to no restrictions.
I moved some pretty large plants by tying a large garbage bag around the pot to contain soil and then laying them down in the back of a station wagon.
In my area you can rent pickup trucks or small moving vans for $20-30 for an afternoon plus petrol. You can also rent trailers for even less.
WAITAMINUTE DONāT YOU HAVE A CARGO BIKE
What is the best method for growing peas? We picked up some bamboo today, and we can build either an a-frame just of bamboo OR two bamboos with lines of string between them OR four bamboos with lines of string between each of the points, including diagonally through the middle of the square.
I also need to know this because I had one crop of peas do amazingly and one crop that flat out refused to climb and I donāt know why.
Peas can be quite close to each other, like 1-2ā apart and they want to grow up something vertical. So can you mount one of the bamboos horizontal like 4-6 feet high and then put strings dropping down?
This^ You want vertical strings.
Edit: You can make two A-frames (for the ends) but crossing a little below the very top, put another pole across the top, arrange the strings down along the vertical pole.
(LOL I donāt know if that makes sense, let me find a photo.)
VERTICAL STRINGS. My mind, it is blown. I knew this forum would hold the answer.
Like this
You can put some cross strings near the bottom (to make it easier for them to grab on initially) and it looks like this photo has that(?) but once they get taller they probably wonāt need them any more, because they will climb up themselves.
Edit: Last year I nailed nails across the top (just under the roof line) of my shed and put a board (like a 2x2) at the base and strung string between the nails up top and wrapped them around the board at the bottom (I didnāt even put nails on the bottom board, just wrapped it around) (so it was like a trellis against a wall) and had runner beans grow up them, thus covering an old and decrepit shed.
Thanks to @druidessie for the explanation and @calbal for the pictures. Like @MonkeyJenga, mind blown, completely rearranging my setup, what a relief to know that Iāll actually grow some peas this year!
Oooooh thaaaats why my peas floppedā¦
Iām trying to keep everything in pots since this is my first year in a rental. How many peas can I grow in one 10 gallon bucket?
Iām not bean/pea expert and Iām sort of making up my supports as I goā¦but here is my arch with wire horizontal plus rope verticals. Iāll extend it to the top in time.
This is option one dependant on the size of the plants.
This is option two. Can do the same here, I used a 5x7 cage trailer to do a lot of the moving.
Unfortunately not anymore, it wasnāt going to be much use up here due to the terrain. I returned the cargo bike back to the owner of the frame, which was the original deal, get the crack fixed, use it as long as I need it and return it when done. And the bonus is heās paying me $800 for all the parts on it so that he can keep it as a running bike.
