Cattle Panel Trellis Tunnel Using Planter Beds

[@bailybeckstrand664]

This was the best arched trellis diy video we have found. Please share more of your beautiful garden in the background ❤

[@PawPawRidgeHomestead]

Thank you! Will do!

[@student5866]

Love this! I’m planning my garden layout and install these arches as well Question: while every other video shows using 6’ T posts; why do you use 3/4” EMT? And, how long are the EMT pieces do you use? Thank you so much for sharing❤

[@blackfrog320]

Great info PawPaw! I appreciate the tips and demonstration. I have some old posts where a grape arbor used to be and I think this may do just the trick to bring back that beautiful archway they provided by using a faster growing vegetable or flower. Thanks again!!

[@PawPawRidgeHomestead]

Glad it was helpful!

[@CookingOldStyle]

This is amazing video, thank you for inspiring me to build a trellis myself.

[@lindabranch8294]

Good morning thank you for this video, this lets me know I can do this. Saw what you did with the 8 ft ones as well. I will definitely get me one now

[@suzy3840]

Great idea!

[@pencey]

Thanks for the help!

[@richkinsey7629]

This is terrific! More PPRH!

[@mcraw4d]

I grow cantaloupe on mine with crochet hammocks to support them. Less rodent, insect, and fungal issues.

[@TeresaClark-yq1xo]

I love my cattle panel. Now I have to find rampicante seeds or plants!

[@PawPawRidgeHomestead]

Me too!

Renees seeds has them

[@monikamona5271]

Great

[@PawPawRidgeHomestead]

Thank you.

This is a great video, thank you so much for taking the time to make it. I'm purchasing two of the cattle panels this weekend, 4/21/24 to plant my gourd seeds (I live in Wisconsin). This will be the first time for me, and I have some questions, but I keep getting conflicting information. I'm putting two of the cattle panels together to make one large one like you did, but I'm not making the permanent boxes this year. You actually answered one of my questions. I see you plant the seeds on the outer sides of the trellises. I wasn't sure if it was the inside or outside, but I can clearly see you have the boxes on the outsides. Thank you! My other question is, how many seeds go into each hole you dig, and how far apart should I plant them along the trellis outer edge? Some people are saying 4 to 10 feet apart, but if that were the case, I would only be able to plant like 10 or so seeds, which doesn't seem like a lot. I'll keep searching your videos to see if you have any posted about the actual planting of the seeds and layout, but if you can please help me with that, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you again and I look forward to hearing from you!

Awesome

What was the plug you were hammering the tube in? Awesome looking garden

[@PawPawRidgeHomestead]

My son (a machinist) made me a stainless steel plug that stops me from deforming the conduit when I pound it into the ground.

[@AshlyEikelberg]

What material do you use for those garden beds? They look beefy, trying to figure out how to keep rabbits out/off the veggies. So maybe double/triple height

[@PawPawRidgeHomestead]

2 x 10 x 8 pressure treated

[@DTTOWhatNow]

I wish we were neighbors! We're in Suffolk VA

[@PawPawRidgeHomestead]

Hey neighbor

[@timmcquerry6068]

Not to sound like a know it all, but I noticed that you have some sort of "driving cap" on your conduit, think that needs mentioning, maybe a 1" pipe nipple w/a cap or something like that? Great video on the subject 👌.

[@PawPawRidgeHomestead]

My son made it to help so you don’t deform the conduit

[@ndbg46881]

How tall is the trellis with a 5 foot path? Everything looks great!!

[@PawPawRidgeHomestead]

Roughly 7'2"

[@tinatolle]

What if your beds are galvanized metal and attaching the trellis really isn’t an option ? Thx for the video !

[@timmcquerry6068]

The stakes(3/4" EMT conduit, T-posts, re-bar.) Whatever soil condition you have, is the structural element. Up against the planter box(weight) that's what holds this up. Anchoring it to the box is of marginal help. So don't worry, build it, they are a GREAT addition to your garden.

[@erinkavanaugh5895]

How do you cut the conduit pipe? What tool? ( I am a newbie)

[@PawPawRidgeHomestead]

I used an angle grinder

[@tinaepstein8763]

What greenhouse do you have? Also do you like it? What did you plant on the trellis? I can’t decide what to put on mine.

[@PawPawRidgeHomestead]

Canopia Hybrid 6 x 10 . I love it!

[@larrys2554]

Great work. What kind of wood did you make your beds out of? Thank you

[@PawPawRidgeHomestead]

Thanks Larry. I use copper based pressure treated lumber. Everything I have read says you will not have an issue with it.

[@jhenningfish9831]

Are those panels galvanized or coated? Just curious about future use and rust.

[@lythimai868]

🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤

[@quintoncarroll5803]

Maybe do a video on building the greenhouse.

[@PawPawRidgeHomestead]

I did reels instead

[@dorinengara3631]

What materials did u use ??? Where did you buy them ???

[@PawPawRidgeHomestead]

16 ft x 50 in cattle panels from Tractor Supply

[@Crealities]

Go PawPaw, go!

[@PawPawRidgeHomestead]

Thanks, dude

[@Sleepy_Kinge]

Anyone know what size those raised beds are?

[@PawPawRidgeHomestead]

I do. 2 ft x 8 ft and 8 inches tall. I meant to buy 10 inch wide boards but made a mistake LOL

I love my cattle panel. Now I have to find rampicante seeds or plants!
