Even with a really rainy year, my cucumbers had their best growing season yet. I would train them up the netting every day or two to make sure they didn't choke out neighbouring plants, but it would take very little time. I grew scarlet runner beans up the other side where they welcomed hummingbirds for my neighbor to watch. I sank the tunnel into a 2ft raisdd bed so that it wasn't too tall. The canopy it provided also allowed lettuce and spinach to be planted underneath.
Harvesting was very easy as long as I made sure to give the bees the right of way.

This is a great space saving item that is needed if you want to grow any type on squash in a small/medium sized garden. I've had great success with growing and the squash ripening nicely on the tunnel! The first time putting it together was a little tricky. The parts were stiff. You do need two people to quickly put it up. The second year I was able to put it up mostly myself and got help to get it straight in the ground and fully together. When I share my photos of my garden, every one asks me about the tunnel and where did I get it. I tell them I got it from Vesey's! Pricey but I think this will last for a very long time. The coating is strong but I did scratch it putting it together for the first time as that's the only place I have a concern for rusting. My advice is don't tighten every thing until your happy with the placement of the bars.
