Got my cattle panels wired in place around last year’s inadequate front yard garden fence. So quick and easy. I’m going to be buying more of them for other things. My shop has turned into a goat shed because it’s open on the front so I can use panels to take care of that. They also get under the house because it’s up on poles and I haven’t finished the skirting. It’s time consuming but slapping up some panels will be a quick temporary fix. Also decided I’ll be fencing in the big garden area where the high tunnel’s going with these panels.
$2 a running foot which is twice the price of goat fence but I don’t have to deal with a roll or tensioning or setting posts sturdy enough for tensioning.
I have a bunch of 1” fiberglass sucker rods that come from the old oil wells. They’re a fiberglas composite really. Super strong and way easier to pound in than t-posts. I could make cheap gates from these panels too. Just add some square tubing for a frame.
Non-political?? hah! It’s almost time for the liberal blood sucking aphid to come out. I’ve had two plants damaged by something chewing on it (doesn’t look like cutworms) and I have fences up. One of my tomato plants had holes in its leaves from something. I can’t be out there every minute watching over my veggies from the ANTIFA bugs but I’m insecticide hesitant until I have to. I have Neems Oil and some Sevin dust but I draw the line at some experimental MRNA genetically altering spray on my foodstuffs. I wanted to hold a rally for the ladybugs but haven’t been able to communicate that to them effectively.
