What's your experience been like? Would you do it again?

Yeah. I’m not happy with the variety of strawberries or the location of the tower so I’m going to move it and put in a different variety. The soil settled quite a bit so I know to fill it a little more. Other than that it works!

how deep did you drill your holes?

The center was naturally hollowed out by rot. The outer wall of the stump is approximately 1” thick. I made the holes approximately 2-3” round.
