Simple climbing support for scented peas and other climbers

FFor annual climbers, more temporary form support is often needed, which should run during the summer, but next year you may have other plans and no longer need the support. Here’s a climbing prop that can be quickly built from just a few sticks, maybe a few pieces of steel wire and some strong thread.

It is important to be able to hit the sticks deep into the ground so that they stand firmly. This support is particularly suitable for pallet collars or other highly stable trays.

This is necessary to support the plant:

• Two long sticks and a piece to use as a crossbar on top. You can use slings, sturgeon, sturdy bamboo sticks, round bars or studs, for example. However, it is easier to get the laces if the sticks are round. The height should of course be adjusted according to what you will grow on the support.
• A piece of steel wire.
• Lots of floss, requires a lot. The thread should not be so thin that it may break during the summer.

How to make a plant prop with strings – step by step

• Push the sticks down away and push them against the floor firmly. In the corners of the box, the supports are automatically supported by the edges. If necessary, place a few stones on the sticks for extra security.

• Cross-linking with steel wire. This is to make sure it is firmly in place. It serves as a stabilizer for support. Hide the steel wire if you want to tie the string.
• Begin by attaching the thread to the bottom of one of the sticks. Tie and tie tightly.

• Now pull the thread to the other stick, tie a few turns around the stick and make a knot. Make sure the thread is tight.
• Continue in the same way diagonally upwards toward the other stick. Tie a few turns and make a knot. Then pull the thread towards the other stick and repeat the procedure. It will now be a zigzag pattern. Make sure the thread is taut.

• When you reach the top, pull the thread to the middle of the crossbar. Winding around several turns, tie a knot and pull the thread down according to the same principle as before until the thread crosses what is already there.

• Tighten the thread at the same height as the other stick. If you keep parallel after that, the diagonal squares that appear will be smooth and fluffy.

• Finally, attach the chain in the same place you started.

Suggestions for light climbers

This support is for light climbers. Keep in mind that climbing plants with a large leaf mass become stressful on all plant supports when it rains and blows heavily.

Help is suitable, for example, peas and some beans, peas, Dayflower, prickly rose coat and black eye.

This is how plants climb more easily

Don’t make the boxes too big. Then there will be a long time between the threads and the plants do not have much to cling to.
