LET’S GO WITH THE MESH

Hi, we are here again!

This week we have done a lot of things and the structure is almost ready to be placed.

We have been very focus on finishing all the bags, for this reason, we have finished to burn all the edges of the bags, because they were a little bit frayed. Later, we have to do the bags for each space of the structure, but we had a problem: How could we join the mesh to form bags? First, we tried to do it burnt the edges and join them, however, this method was not very successful, due to the mesh separated with ease, so we had to find another solution. We thought that staple it would be a great idea, and it was. The bags look great and hold up very well.

When all the bags were finished, we started to place them in the different gaps of the pallets. We have had some difficulties, because we did not how to hold them; however we have solved this problem holding them with staples. And it seems to resist and looks good, isn’t it?

Finally, we have poured soil and water in two of the bags to prove if they resist the weight of the soil and the water, and we are very happy because it seems to have worked, because it holds up very well.

The next week, we will continue telling you how our work in the vegetable garden continues developing.
