It would be awesome if you posted an updated video for this project in the future (how well the strawberries grew since they were sideways, what to do when the plant produces runners, and how well the tube held up during the season). This is such a cool idea!

i've been told that the biggest challenge with single stack vertical setups like this is with watering. Drip irrigation probably helps.

I 2nd that! I'd like to know if they held up over the winter.

This nice lady should have her own TV show already, she is so natural.

Great idea, I sent the video from yesterday to my daughter because she was looking for something different to grow strawberries. My husband really likes it too. He said that you should use a deburring tool to remove the burrs (sharp pieces) from the drill holes. It would make it a lot safer and may not even need to wear gloves while planting if you remove the burrs first.

Well, I did my research and galvanized containers are safe to grow in. Soil should be around the neutral range which won’t deteriorate the zinc coating, stock tanks have been used for years and years and and still in great shape.

Hi! Gooodmorning guys!☕️🌷😀 My husband and I fell in love with this idea as soon as it came out. It does look very pretty,clean,and smart for small gardening space. Thanks for this awesome idea we will be trying it out!

You are so creative, Laura! Love this one! I agree about the planting tray, I bought one shortly after I saw you rave about it a couple of years ago and now I wonder how I ever lived without it!

I love this so much!!! I have the perfect location for a few of these on my patio. Thanks for sharing all of your wonderful ideas and knowledge. I particularly love how we get to see the multitude of wonderful locations throughout your home. Each stands as a beautiful testament to your passion and talent. Your channel is a rare gem indeed.

Just to remind you. Most of the pipes you drink from are pvc pipes. But if you are worried about the pvc glue. I would just find a large enough cap and bolt it on or use silicon gel. Anything else for peace of mind. But pvc pipe shouldn't be a problem

So loved the idea of this vertical strawberry holder. Great job.

For home made it looks very professional, great job Laura, I learn something from you each rime.

Such an AWESOME idea that's practical & very cool looking! Thanks for the inspiration 😉

What an awesome idea. Good on you!!! This is so amazing, especially for people who might not have a yard.

I like that you showed us the drill bit so we know how to put holes in stuff. :)

I love the idea! You are a genius. Thank you for Sharing with us!

I have some of this tubing left over, now I have a good use for it! Thanks for the idea 😊

"Guest-imate." love it! I think I learned that phrase from my parents. Its the best way to measure. :) They look great!

Your way of explaining everything is very good, great way

That custom made hanging pot looks good for herbs too.

Great tutorial. Also, you have great screen presence. Going to show this to wifey and pretty sure this will become a project. Thanx.

Great DIY Laura!! This is such a great idea and I could even pull this off on my porch! Thank you for sharing your ideas with us! These are a must do for sure!! :)

This is a great video! I really want to make this. Thank you for sharing. 🤗

DEFINITELY trying this!!! Thanks for sharing this idea👏🏽

What an awesome idea!! Thanks Laura 💖

Your helper Dexter is so tier that his taking time to rest. Your project is awesome. Love it

Cant wait to see the updates!! Beautiful!

Just did my first year of strawberries in a pot. The crappy thing is that they rot almost right away if they touch soil, so this seems like good rot prevention.

Awesome project. I can’t wait to get started on mine

Absolutely loved this idea! Thanks!

I would love to see a follow-up in late July or August to see if the bottom half survives.

If worried about not getting water, you could put a small tube or pipe down the entire middle, with a few tiny holes to let water drip out slowly. If worried about that area getting too much water, could ask drainage holes.

Great idea. I'm going to do this for my small patio area. Thanks.

Beautiful love the wind chime ideal I am waiting for your own TV garden show

Literally love this. I really like the look of it too!

iirc pvc isn't toxic until it is heated above around 270 degrees. I seem to recall metals being more toxic. Anyway, looks cool, thanks for the vids :-)

ideia muito boa excelente criatividade

Great idea! Great clean look!

Awesome idea! Can't wait to try it

Looking back at all of your past strawberry projects. I am wanting to take mine out of the ground and into containers due to crazy spring, soggy & cold weather, not to even mention the slugs.

Wow what a great idea Laura 👍🏼🕊

Love the strawberry hanging towers:) I've been looking for a better spot to put my strawberries 🍓 I'm doing this in my small patio this spring Thanks!

Fun! Thanks for the video. I like cheaper and healthier. So pretty! Lots of plants too! I have to get my strawberry plants off the ground!

Oh my gosh, Laura this is so amazing! I'm always looking for a different way to grow strawberries, and this fits the bill. Thank you so much for this video, I love how they turned out.

My thoughts too but haven't researched it. But everyone seems to be using galvanized stock tanks or galvanized raised beds. So.....why are they selling them for growing food? Just curious.

PVC rigid pipe as been food safe since the 80. The NSF already has standards for food and water safety. Just make sure it is NSF code on pipe. When you hear toxic from pvc they are taking about pipes before 1977. The FDA has approved PVC for a while. Galvanized metal is actually worse than PVC.

@@ohsweetmystery worth concern, but PVC glue is only toxic before curing, much like most wood finishes that are on cutting boards and salad bowls. Once it is fully cured it will not deteriorate or offgas and is safe for potable water.

Most modern PVC is safe when used indoors. Outdoors is a different story. PVC degrades when exposed to sunlight, which these planters will get lots of.

I love this idea!!!! I Russell knows when you are shooting. I love that little guy🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️❤️

What an awesome idea 😍💜

You are such a hard worker. That's a great idea... getting them up off the ground and it looks really nice. tfs

What a great idea to add vertical visual interest

This is simply awesome.

You are awesome! I was looking for another material by side pvc pipe. Thanks!

This is awesome! Love ❤️ it! 🍓🍓🍓

Very cool. Need to give this a try.

Awesome idea. Thank you!

Love it, gonna copy it...thank you!

can you do an update when they start fruiting?

Fantastic idea! Thank you.

This gave me so much inspo!!!!! Thanks

I’m going try this ! Love it

I love the whole setup😍

What a great idea!

Love this!

I so love your channel it fills me with inspiration and ideas. My husband on the other hand hates me watching it….🤣

I love this idea

What a Wonderful Idea tyfs Looks So Gorgeous!❤😁👏🏾

What a perfect idea!!!

So cute!

Excellent idea. Thanks.

Beautiful

Fabulous!

Great job you have it going

This idea is very cool!

Thanks for the idea 👍

I bet some company is going to manufacture these for next year. So cute!

That’s beautiful 😍

Love the idea

Seen this done with gutters for the house,but they hang horizontally! Great idea!

Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo............. strawberries look great.

Russel looks big too!! And he disappeared while you guys started drilling😋🤣

Clever - thanks! I do think I'll look for a food-grade PVC to avoid the whole sharp-edges thing, but I'll totally steal your design. :)

Awesome information.Thank you very much...

your cat is so cute Ive seen him/her in the background briefly in your other videos I wish you would introduce, he's so cute :)

Very berry beautiful:)

Love it!

wow, love the creativity :D

I love the look. It would be lovely as a large urban area looking to add some life.

Omg ty so much.....perfect solution for me. I see the comments below, will check on toxicity or another material yet I love the concept.

Wow,, very cool. Your amazing :) what a great idea. Looks very nice, I also like how it looks like the plants arec spiralling around it. Love it ~♡~

great idea

Very cool!

Cute idea but you should probably make a video showing the actual on-going maintenance that will need done with this setup. I'm guessing some people won't know that they're going to have to maintain them regularly by trimming the daughters (runners) and replacing plants as they get old. Cutting the runners is no big deal but I wouldn't want to have to replace a failing plant in one of those tubes. Lol.

AWESOME.

If you take a rubber tube and slit it down one edge you can clip it around the rough edge of each hole and it will make it safer for planting and harvesting from it for years to come - natural rubber is non-toxic, or I am sure you an get food grade soft plastic tubes but I don’t know where - maybe in wine making kits or similar? Anyway just an idea xx

Love it 😄

I think you can use car-door strip to line the plant holes to make them safer

Nice idea, the only thing I would add is some way to protect the sharp edges. They make a nice edge trim in rolls, which should work good. thanks for sharing

I'm so excited to see the updates on this planter it looks absolutely stunning! Would this work in Zone 9 or would my plants roast?

This is so nice , thank you for sharing such a cool project !!! Just wondering if the metal doesn't get to hot and scorch the plants in the summer ???

Love it

Thank you

You are GENIUS 😍😍😍 Did you have a lot of strawberries 🍓 with this set up?
