Tetanus shots are a scam. Totally. An animal, a diseased farm animal would've had to urinate on the exact spot that poked you, and even then you just wash with hydrogen peroxide which is oxygen and will kill any germs. Stop listening to the gov't sponsored medical community.
Love it!!!!
I did one season with the rusty metal side fangs serving as the wrap-around fastening method for the cage structure. But even bent and tucked skillfully away, those side fangs are never 100% safe around human flesh. So the next year I "defanged' my cages (cleanly removed by bolt cutters). Now I use just 3 tiny UV-resistant zip ties to hold the cage together. 100 ties cost $5, BTW. I cinch together three points, -one rung down from the top, the middle, and one rung up from the bottom. Zip fully tight leaving zero play. It's very sturdy with 3, but use more tie points if you wish. When tying, join opposite adjacent corners (kitty-corners) to achieve both lateral and vertical stability in a single tie. 3 ties cost 15 cents total, so feel free to cut all three ties off at season's end annually if you think it makes teardown/storage/assembly of your garden faster or easier.
10:14 lmao.
That stuff rusts like there is no tomorrow. When it does that it will get all over you . Try the red ten dollar folding cage at Lowe’s.
what size is the wire?
Get to it already..
That’s the info I was looking for! Thanks for sharing
your so young here heehe.. glad you stuck with it.
I’m gonna do this cage thanks. You’re right about the wire edges. I built a quail pen with hardware cloth and it looked like I had fought a wildcat.
tear apart an old bed and take the wire structure out. bend it into a cylinder. done and it only cost 20$.
Too much talking
This is my first year growing tomato plants and this was very helpful! Thanks
You can use crimp on joiners on the smaller gauge metal.
"Hold it really well, don't ever let it go." BRO IF YOU THINK I'MA STAND OUTSIDE FOR THE ENTIRE GROWING SEASON YOU'RE CRAZY
The squares are 6" and why cut the length at 42 inches (tall) that leaves 16" that will be waste. And to make your project easier I suggest investing in a pair of Bolt cutter at harbor Freight $16.
overkill for tomato's
Best tomato cage I've built I made this year. Horse panel split down the winter , alternate cuts to form spikes. They are three x eight so only make an 16" high lattice. I drive 4' stakes at the end and add a stake to the middle and can run a addition support string ( california weave) if needed if they get tall. They are quick, easy , durable and store flat. Heavy duty galvanized and don't need to be stored inside. Easy to pick too.
Is that pot to your right ?
I have 30 that I made from used pasture fence some 33 years ago. Still decent but the earth has gotten to barbs that go into the ground. They have served me well.
Nice sincere young man, thank you but These are way too short for any tomato I’ve grown
I made tomato cages somewhat the same way but I made 4 panels & connected all 4 panels the same way you did with the extra wire sticking out and they fold nice & flat for people who don’t have a lot of storage room. They do make nice trellises.
great video! Thank you
hey pick up some 3/4 inch PVC Piping wanting to use them as tomatoes stake would they work ok they are clean
Too much talking. 3:36 is where instruction starts.
Thank you!
It would be easier for me to bend it straight using a plank. Making a square and zip tie it on the one end. I don't have your wrist power to bend the wire
