6" pipe, 3" net pots...can put 18 plants on a 5 foot section. 4 pipes can be suspended. For strawberries. A lot more work and a lot more expensive than 4" pipes. The schedule 40 pipe is thick and will insulate it.

yes, more than I realized

Brian Patterson

yes, but you still need to connect it by cutting it on a curve or filling the crack

Jasmin Chandler

I think you need to dumb down the build for me. I’m lost

I use something called j-weld, it's an epoxy putty

Brian Patterson

I am trying to copy the expensive premade ones

I seen this done in a video that looked a lot faster and easier. The guy cut a slit in the pipe then heated the pipe an stuck something round to make the slit fit the pits. Wish I would have save the video. Will try and find it.

Brian Patterson

I've seen those videos, yes they are much easier and cheaper

Brian Patterson

they look sloppy and I'm trying to build something that looks more like a functioning art piece
