Hi everyone, I would like to grow strawberries and the idea of strawberry towers sounds appealing. Any advice would be welcome.

Thanks

Maureen

I did a quick search and found a video by web4deb at this link http://www.backyardaquaponics.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=8800&p=257671&hilit=strawberry+towers#p257671

I think there is another video out there so keep looking.

I've had really good luck with the towers I made. Credit goes to Synaptoman for the original design! :notworthy:
