propping the tall ones, best materials?
For varieties that fruit tall (the bunch at 15' +), where you need a prop about 20' long or more, what materials do you make the prop out of?
At that length, it seems like you have to go "industrial" because most of the normal materials I use (e.g., wooden posts, bamboo, PVC pipe) aren't available long enough or aren't strong enough. I think I recall PR-Giants using metal fence posts or something like that, but I couldn't find that thread.
My Pisang Klotek / Pisang Ceylan mat insists on fruiting at 15-16' p-stem height. Those plants are terrible leaners once they bloom (at least in my yard), and I haven't found a propping solution I'm happy with.
