Can we get a growth progression or update pls

[@louisdepointedulac3072]

There are other videos showing that the soil dries too fast so you have to water them very often, plus it heats up too much.

[@simple_southern_garden]

Do you suggest positioning the gutter facing south?

[@saltyacresnc]

Yes! Keep shaded

[@annemariebabich745]

Do they over winter in those troughs?

[@djt7387]

Where's the update?
This is not how you grow straw berries... you should look into permaculture...

How do you prevent water from the upper gutter from dripping to the lower gutter to avoid making ripe strawberries dirty?

[@lucybrown8902]

Just wash your strawberries 😂

[@andyhunter635]

How much space did you put between the holes you drilled for drainage?

[@saltyacresnc]

1 hole every 6 inches

Just because you will grow food in a gutter doesn’t mean that it’s a good idea. Often, this will depend on the type of guttering that you are using. There are a few things that you will need to be wary of.
First, you should avoid using an aluminum gutter. There is a risk that this will leach into the soil. This can lower the pH level. This will start to impact your plants, mainly if they are sensitive to these changes. The good news is that aluminum is unlikely to have a significant impact on your health.
If you plan to utilize second-hand gutters, you’ll need to check the metal for rust first. Generally, rust won’t cause any problems for plants, as they can’t absorb the metal. Interestingly, there won’t be any health issues that stem from accidentally ingesting rust for most people. But widespread rusting can mean that the gutter will be unable to cope with the weight of the soil and plants.
my guy, you are first monetizing your video for profit while giving out really bad advice and then trying to poison people by selling them your plants you are growing.
