Great video! I've been wanting to plant berry vines in my yard for quite some time. This gave me such great advice on how to install the trellis structure! Thank you gentlemen!!
I plan to put this together for my Brooklyn blackberry bushes. If 2020 is anything like last year, I'll also have to buy a freezer for all the many pounds of fruit I'll harvest.
Take a 2" by 20" length bulb drill bit and drill the hole for the Tpost. It's much easier. Trust me! I can do a post in about one minute and it doesn't break my back.
How would you keep the birds away from the berries? Asking because I just bought blackberry bushes and am trying to figure out how to keep the jays and wild turkeys from eating them all!
You could use it with grapes but the pruning requirement for grapes might make it difficult. Grapes grow on new growth from one year old wood which means you prune off a lot of the plant every year. This trellis would make it hard because you would have to untangle all the growth to get it out. Here is a video about grapes. it includes some common trellising options. th-cam.com/video/20XOym0F0ek/w-d-xo.html (Starting at 8 minutes)
Well, Barnaby Jones, I went to the service, finish a biology bachelor, work research, raise my children, retired, and when the pandemic came I had already my pantry ready and my garden full on vegetables and fruits! What about you?

Glad we could help out. Thanks for watching and enjoy the berries!
I would love to see an update of this!
Here is a video from last year about the blackberries on this trellis: th-cam.com/video/yFRAswD53Cc/w-d-xo.html

Would this also work for Boysenberries and Raspberries??

Can this method be used for grapes??

How tall are the fence posts used in the video?
They are 8'
You need The Gripple tool.
He didn’t need such a helper, way, he wasn’t helping at all, did he?
This is what you have to offer?

Clay is never fun to dig in.
