cowpea! /roysmom...so glad you came back! i have had so many compliments on your planters...everyone who sees them wants them...they have been a real back saver for me...my dear sweet husband, who built these from your photos and measurements sent via email here on daves, did not put the center support but instead drilled screws all the way down the length of the black drainage pipe on both sides into the length of the side wood pieces...i haven't had any problems with weight and sagging...

he built 4 to start with and loved them so much he built 4 more...i love them and all the credit goes to you!

we've already harvested broccoli, cauliflower, and romaine lettuce...we are now getting squash, zucchini, cucumbers, bush beans, cabbage and strawberries, several types of peppers as well as herbs...yet to be harvested are carrots, beets, snow peas, watermelon and butternut squash and onions!!!

harvesting and tending is a JOY!!!
