Hi everyone, I would like to grow strawberries and the idea of strawberry towers sounds appealing. Any advice would be welcome.

Thanks

Maureen

What level of salt did you dose with Food and Fish? And as everyone knows the strawberries are easier to replace than the fish.

I've had really good luck with the towers I made. Credit goes to Synaptoman for the original design! :notworthy:
