>>1009828>What did you use for the ribs of your tunnels? PVC?Mostly used, black plastic, natural gas pipe(1.5"?) from a local gas company. There's 1 joint of 1/2" PVC pipe and 4 joints of 1/2", grey, conduit pipe. I also cut up an old roll of old, 1", black plastic, water pipe. The grey conduit pipe was actually the easiest to work with.
> baled with the cut ends and the string on the same sideSomeone doesn't know how to use the baler. lol Actually, those may be "double compressed", which are normally banded the other direction, but some machines use 3 pieces of twine in the normal direction. They are normally really really heavy. Like 100-150lbs.
>>1009822One of my watermelon plants has started to go limp. It probably doesn't like this cold or something is munching on the roots with all this rain.
>Worst. Spring. Ever.The most bipolar for sure. I'm hoping my fruit trees don't get zapped by frost tomorrow and Tuesday. They are the only things I don't cover. I've not had mulberries for many years now and there's a bumper crop of them coming on.
>>1009906Yes. I overwinter mine inside since I live in an area that is far too cold for them in the winter. If it snows in your area, you'll need to bring them inside or put a polytunnel with heat on them. Tomato plants are much the same, though after 3-5 years they tend to succumb to some disease.
