Key insights about video UG- Outdoor Fence Gardening #2

🌱 The speaker is giving an update on their outdoor growing system using a fence system and containers with a capacity of 18 gallons.

🌱 They use a plastic cover on top of the containers to try and keep the rain out, although it doesn't keep it completely out.

🌱 The speaker uses a half-inch drip line with a half-gallon per hour drip emitter for each container, which is gravity-fed.

🌱 The containers are fed with rainwater and they use a bug preventer to keep bugs from getting into the lines and clogging them up.

🌱 They have around 60 containers planned and have already planted peppers, tomatoes (including heirloom varieties), and cherry tomatoes.

🌱 The speaker has a 150-micron mesh screen at the front of the system to filter out large particles and prevent clogging.

🌱 They have set up a rain catcher system using a vinyl gutter pipe and trash cans, with filters to remove debris before the water reaches the containers.

🌱 The rain catcher system holds 120 gallons of water and each container receives two gallons of water when it rains.

🌱 The speaker is using a potting mix that consists of pine bark fines, promix bx (a peat moss and perlite mix), and perlite.

🌱 The speaker is excited about how the system has turned out so far and will provide updates in the future.
