New subscriber! For a cutting tool. Use Milwaukee long blade cutting sheers $25. They are in the Tool Hardware section. You will slice through the wire mesh in minutes. Also, consider cheap garden burlap to line the pole as you dump the soil in less will fall out, and it helps retain moisture and dirt. It's cheap. Plus, the pole looks better. If you need a photo of my moss pole, let me know.
Good question. One thing I forgot to mention is that this is strictly for support and I don’t usually worry about wetting it. Just using this as a support as if using a wooden pole but yes it is probably still ideal to wet it every once in a while. My goal here is not so much to encourage too much aerial root growth. Just something to allow it to climb on. If I had used sphagnum moss then I would keep moist for that particular reason but I don’t want the aerial roots to grow too crazy and if so I’d cut it every so often if they ever got way too long.
You two are the best. Thanks for sharing.

@@Plantdudejamesso there’s no nutrients from the coco husks just support? Have you ever mixed coco chips and moss in a pole?
