Re: Didn't break the record
They arrived not too long ago. I have the first one assembled but have realized that I will have to devise a way to keep them standing. They don't have ground stakes like the first one that I bought when I first started the garden. I'm thinking about short sections of re-bar pounded into the ground next to each leg and then secured with zip ties or something.

Re: Didn't break the record
Don't see why the re-bar idea would not work. And I think it's either Home Depot or Lowes sells re-bar in short lengths...

Re: Didn't break the record
I found some at Home Depot that is 12 inches long. They also have wire ties to secure them. It is holding well so far but we haven't had any severe weather to give it a real test yet. I have a backup plan just in case.
