We really must put a few more of these pipe planters up, but in the meantime we only have the one. We get plenty of strawberries from it though. The pipe keeps a lot of water in the soil, so they are a really easy to look after and to harvest -- and none are lost to the slugs or the dogs or the sheep or the horses.. The ends are blocked with lumps of wood. The holes were cut with a jigsaw. The runners (the baby strawberry plants) are ones we collected from our outside bed (more on those later in the season). At the end of the fruiting season we take it down and leave it outside the polytunnel door. Easy or what?! Here's how we make the holes.. https://youtu.be/SCcK9vvSEeo Here's our online store where you can see some of the craft things we make and sell.. http://www.wayoutwestemporium.com/ and here's our Patreon page.. https://www.patreon.com/user?u=2761318&ty=h Copyright WayOutWest.
