 ==== Holding up the trellises ====
-{{:garden:infrastructure:trellises:06_img_6936.jpg?200 |Trellises and T-posts}}Soil in a raised bed is too soft to hold a trellis vertical given the strong winds we often experience. So I pounded T-posts into the underlying ground. The trellises held strong through the growing season. However, when the plants were done, presence of a trellis precluded preparing the bed for next season - adding soil amendments and mixing them it, adding top soil and compost, and then sowing a cover crop of crimson clover. a challenge to preparing such a bed lay in removing the T-posts. They were so embedded in the rocky soil beneath the bed that I couldn't remove them by myself. So bought a T-post puller, which made quick work of extracting the posts.
