U of T growing asparagus at home
Thank you!
After adding up all the gutter parts and pieces, I figured out you can just price the gutter itself, multiply by four and be pretty close.
$56 - 7 pcs gutter - 70’ plus 10.5” end caps with drop, for each end(4) plus seams will be close enough for 36’ tunnel
$72 - 48 gutter hanger - (50 pk) Hanger every 24” or 18” for snow load areas and we have snow and ice.
$50 - 6 gutter connectors
$50 - ends with downspout drops
After tax, $250 (so much for $50 worth of gutter)
They say a downspout drop every 40 foot and going by that’ I’d need two, one for each 36’ side but since I want the middle to be the high point, I need four. I’ll be able to catch a heavier rain without overflowing.
I don’t need any downspouts because the gutter won’t be much higher than a tank is tall.
