They look great and totally healthy! Where are you located?
Consider a drip system with individual drippers on each bag. Works great for me... I set the timer for a few minutes twice a day, and get out to prune and spray once a week. Sent from my ONEPLUS A5000 using Tapatalk |

Elight, I live in Green Bay, Wi. as far as using a drip system I really want to be in the garden daily or every other day... Why well last week Sat.for the 1st time ever my garden was attacked by Japanese beetles they were trying to make quick work of my pole beans, but my quick action squashed their plans and my pole beans escaped with minimal leaf damage because I spotted them during my morning visit to the garden. I'm retired and the few minutes a day I spend in the garden is something I enjoy, if I was still working I'd feel otherwise.

I see you are also using those 3 ring supports as I do which works well for me.
Most are in grow bags, some in containers( 10 to 15 gal ones.When they get to the top of the supports I just let them flop over and hang down. Carolyn
