Years ago I bought some 3-way PVC joiners for cages over my veggie gardens. I then gave them to Geoff to try and then he gave them back to me. So last week I found my netting and made up some cages from what I had around the place and lo and behold I now am getting strawberries that are ripe enough to eat. They are usually stolen by birds or possums long before they are ripe enough for me.
When I get a tall person I am going to re-attach the ones over the hanging baskets to make it easier for me to access the strawberries but still keep the birds out.
This morning I have harvested 6 ripe strawberries. That is more than I got all last year so I am now going to buy the necessary fittings to cover all my veggie beds. They are so easy to put together and dismantle I'll be able to store them when I don't need them.
