Hay Jason do you still have the pots in the mesh? And did you bend the mesh to make them fit? I struggled to find ones that would fit standard mesh..

Good looking plant growth you've got.. :thumbright:

Still have the pots in the mesh, I did bend the mesh inwards to secure each pot in as otherwise the weight saw the pots fall through.
The lettuce I put in them has stayed alive alot longer than the normal beds, hopefully more success will come when the sun stops burning them. Otherwise marigolds, chives, mint, sage and oregano are growing well in them. As soon as the roots break through the bottom of the pot, the fluctuating water levels obviously don't have as greater effect either. Currently trying to grow some rosemary cuttings as well, and see if they strike with more success than in potting mix.
