- Trellis
Trellis nets is a fence like structure that is moveable. You can either build one for yourself with raffia twine (but it would require many more hours of work) or buy from the store.
One way to build trellis is to first build a frame and then cover it with some chicken wire but this can be very expensive in commercial plantations, so we suggest and recommend the use of HORTOMALLAS® trellis netting.
Make sure the height of the trellis espalier is between 5-6 feet. If you are using a trellis net as support for pole bean, plant the crop at the base of the netting. However, each row should be at least about 3 feet apart to allow proper ventilation in between plants.
If you are cultivating the bean plant, you need to consider using support. Support will help the plant to grow well and also increase yield. It will also reduce the incidence and spread of diseases in the garden. One important thing to consider when providing support is to ensure that they are sturdy. A sturdy support structure will hold the weight of the plant throughout the growing season.
