Hello, I am a hardware cloth manufacturer from China. The products in your video are produced by us. If you are interested, we can consider cooperation.😊
14 gauge is pretty thick. That would be very impressive if this cutter can get through that. I haven’t even seen that gauge sold in the big box stores. Most I’ve seen is either 19 gauge or 23 gauge
A couple of things I noticed about using these white drums. One is that they are taller than they really need to be and as the dirt settled there ends up being about 6 inches of drum above the soil. This extra plastic tends to curl inward. What i did was cut off about 4 or 5 inches of the top and shove it down inside the drum to make a double thick wall at the top of the planter. Next is that these white drums get brittle if left in full sun for a few years. I think that it's best to paint them to protect them from sun damage. They make pretty chesp pots if you can find them for around $10 each The blue drums are probably better in full sun. The blue color code means that some kind of cleaner was in those drums. I wouldn't use a black drum. Those had petroleum based products such as insecticides in them. Thanks for the video.
You can fill them with whatever the plants need. I like that I can make the soil match exactly what each plant needs! And can add as much or as little water as the plant needs as well.
@@crittersincassatt6065 yeah I think I need to make sure it's higher protein next time. I got the wrong starter feed and I just put them on 30% protein. Think they are just a little undersized but I could be tripping. First time raising quails
Wow, that thing is amazing... I HATE cutting that stuff. I come away with bloody knuckles every time, and then various puncture wounds from the pieces falling! Great find... Thanks!
I put a drainage hole about half way up the side. This lets water remain in the bottom for roots to find and to wick up and I don't have to water my garden hardly at all! We'll see if that changes in the heat of mid summer, but it definitely helps keep the plants in moist soil.
This variety is not bred to live in the wild, they will die. They are not bred for brains/survival instincts, just size. They don't even hatch/raise their own chicks or get out of the rain! That said, they do fly short distances, kind of like a chicken can fly short distances. They got pretty good at flying across the pen.
Very nice. You planned! We will be moving to our new place over the next few months. I was wondering what you were doing with the space between the containers. The quail will be well protected. Husband has talked about two containers, roof, and it being shop space of some type. We have one and I believe a second will be in play in VA very soon. Thanks for sharing your plans!
Not sure. It's required by code. I think it keeps stuff from growing under there? Maybe a vapor barrier? It does make it easier to crawl around under there and not get sandy :-)
