2 feet takes about 6 feet of concrete wire each. I use my klien linemans pliers and custom cut to where it gives a wrap wire and cut the bottom to where it has stab wire protruding from the bottom if I'm making sense? A roll of wire makes I think it was 16 cages its best to cost share with neighborsropen, What diameter did you make those cages?

great for cukes too !Thanks, makes perfect sense.
Not really many news.
This is a terrible year for tomatoes, peppers and Solanaceae here due to the weather: late blight is literally making life miserable for everybody from homeowners to professional growers here.
To this it must be added I had to spend three weeks in hospital and then in rehab due to a health problem and my potager was left to my brother, self-proclaimed owner of a "brown thumb".
In short I don't expect much, if anything from tomatoes and peppers.
Zucchini and Summer squashes are doing quite well however and tomatilloes seem to have been spared most of their cousins' problems so far.
I might even get a mater sandmich before the 4th of july! Pulled these off today.
