This Vertical Support Rack For Squash Garden Vegetables DIY Project are designed to introduce the homesteading readers to a unique method for corraling unruly squash plants called a growing rack. This building project budget is kept down by using slavaged wood from shipping wood pallets. Repurposing them into a functional re-purposed gardening tool is just a bonus for everyone.
If you ever tried to grow squash in your backyard garden you probably already know that they can get pretty unruly and spread out very quickly. Their heavy duty leaves and stem system grow outward and have a tendency to get in the way when it is time to water or to do other gardening chores. Unfortunately, you cannot use traditional methods of staking or putting in a trellis due to the poor climbing ability of the plant.
This Do It Yourself project describes everything you will need to do in order to build a squash growing rack from an old wooden shipping pallet. The project describes all of the stuff that you will need to use in order to build one. It also describes all of the steps that they went through to put the growing rack from start to finish.
All of the information is presented in a way that makes it really easy to read and to understand.
