Just a heads up that using a 4x4 post anchor is a lot easier than that auger method you're using. The other suggestion I would have for tensioning the wires would be to have an electric fence wire tensioner at the end of each wire as it connects to a large screw eye that is bolted through the 4x4. The beauty of that is you can maintain the tension of the wire for all the years that it's in place. The other thing I would suggest is that the holes are drilled in the cross bars and attach to the support 4x4 while you have it on the ground. There you can bolt everything in and get it well and secure and then go ahead and slide it right into a 4x4 post anchor and then tighten up the anchor around the post
Why would that be easier, Cecil? Looks like the auger is not so hard to install, and no need for digging a big hole with cement for the 4x4 post... just wondering.
I’ve got a very large yard with ugly 6’tall chain link fencing. It’s about 400+ feet on all 4 sides. Full sun on 3 sides part in back. I’d love to have hardy kiwi on it but concerned about the top hanging on each side w/ out support. Is my chain link string enough & would it look to unruly? I’m in the country & have a garden & animals.
@@bryanferrao7336 how does it take the cold temps, and does it fruit well? I just moved to Arkansas and I’m looking for a passion fruit variety that will work for this climate
can you use this trellis style for grapes? I'm planting 4 cold hardy kiwi bines this spring and figured I"d put 4 grape vines in as well. Just thought it would be more uniform on the landscape if I had one solid trellis the same height and look with grapes on one side and kiwi on the other. I always see shorter grape growing styles though so I'm not sure if it would grow tall like kiwi does really quickly
I know I am late but yes you can, but you need to use steel vineyard posts instead of T posts and you need a bare minimum of 12.5 gauge high tensile vineyard wire.
You can plant the female in the center and train the two best vines outward to the end posts. I had the male along a chain link fence and kept him clipped small--which takes regular attention! There is a “Prolific” cultivar that is supposedly self-pollinating, but I read elsewhere you won’t get as much fruit as when you’ve got a male. Hand pollination doesn’t seem like a good plan for potentially hundreds of flowers some years down the road.
I bought what I thought were kiwi trees at Walmart the other day I bring them home and put them in the ground then I look up how to plant kiwi just to find out that I was supposed to have male and female even worse I got to build trellis for these kiwis needless to say I'm kind of pissed
You dont need a trellis, you can grow them along a chain link fence or drive 3 T posts, and wire a cattle panel to the posts and grow them along the cattle panel horizontally. KIWIS are adaptable. Mine are planted in large containers and growing on concrete reinforcing wire cages like I use for my indeterminate tomatoes. 24" diameter 6 feet tall
I bought a variety at the big box store that is supposed to be self fertilizing, though reading up you get better results with a male plent. You could also try pollinating with a tiny paintbrus--works for pawpaws but there will be a LOT more flowers with Hardy Kiwi. You absolutely need a big strong trellis. But don’t cry--those tiny walmart/Lowes plants only cost about $10...

the wire vise used in the video allows for constant tensioning as well. check them out. they are great.
Very informative video but I'm inclined to think there must be a cheaper method, even if it's less effective.
Thanks for uploading this video. It makes me knowledgeable much. I want to watch some more videos about kiwi planting.
A tip: you can watch movies on Flixzone. Me and my gf have been using them for watching loads of movies recently.
@Adam Onyx yup, I've been using Flixzone} for years myself :)
@Adam Onyx Yea, have been watching on flixzone} for months myself :)
Thank you for this very useful video! what is the exact name for the metal piece which lets metal wire goes in one direction?

감사합니다
Awesome share, thank you
learn day by day gratitude
Could you tell me where exactly you plant the vines in relation to the posts and wires? And how do you tighten and secure the wires at the end posts?
Is there a list of materials needed?
Where do you plant your kiwi? at the posts or in the centre?
What do you use to lock off the wire both ends?
What type of passion fruit are you growing?
Amazon

Where did you purchase the wire locking devices?

Can you help me get the male and female kiwi tree cuttings for me to plant in my country? please
Zvgsgegdd😭👌🏼🖤🖤👌🏼
this is the same video as another one on your channel??
What is the length of your earth anchor?
How to you tell young kiwi plant male or female without flowers
Would this also work as a grape trellis?
It should.
do you sell male and female issai?
A Spanish windlass cannot be tied off in the manner that they did. It will just unwind under tension.
True and that was not a carriage bolt they used either
those aren't carriage bolts
This is way too much, I’ve done this with metal stakes from the depot
