As I've said, I have two large containers that will hold two large tomato plants or other food that needs a trellis. But, I ordered a container for one tomato or plant that needs a vine and it came today. That is one fine barrel for the tomato or other vine needing plant. It's a Hydrofarm barrel so it's watered from the bottom. I put it together here in the house and the trellis is plastic circles you snap together as you need more trellis and it's 5 feet tall with the trellis fully put together.

I like this barrel and trellis - I can see bean plants having a blast growing up, plus blackberries, and squash.

Having these containers that are easily moved, will allow me to move the plants into shade for a period of time to keep the boiling sun off them when it's the hottest.

I have a couple of syrup pots with cukes and peppers in my garage, door open during the day with a fan on low, trying to keep them kinda cool. Tomorrow is 1 July, if it’s hot now, what are the dog days of August going to be like.

Sounds great. If you have pictures, I am sure we would all like to see them.
