Step 4Plant the Vines
Now the fun part: planting!
1. Plant your vines at the base of the mesh surrounded barrels. Get them as close to the wire as possible but be sure to space them away from each other according to the needs of the particular plant.
2. Coax the plants into growing up the wire by guiding already formed vines into the wire and gently weaving them through. To prevent vines from developing sparse foliage low on the mesh but dense on top (as they tend to do), pinch back the terminal growth of the stems as they develop because this
forces lower branching and more evenly distributed foliage on the wire.
3. After it has rained and you want to water with your collected rainwater just attach your regular garden hose to the bottommost outlet and turn the spout!
