those are a couple, if you look good, you can see the concrete blocks below the gutters. the plant's base is almost 2 ft from the ground.

Whoa dude those buds look like tomatoes.

Cool set up. It looks like an ebb and flow rail system using those square PVC pipes. Do you do some sort of gravity drop or pump system.

it's actually DIY gutters made from cardboard and polyethylene and galvanized metal... i do not recommend the same exact gutters as it is unique to me since i work in various renovation and construction, and can apply what can seem to be complicated DIY to many, and i save a lot of money by using these methods. But it can be done in ready made gutters in the same system, under the gutters is a perpendicular longitudinal res that bottom feeds them by flooding from below, and then it shuts off and gravity drains it back. simple plain old ebb and flow, nothing more

iv companioned rosemary with lemons and limes to try and get rid of soil flies but it only worked so much. there were less but they took a few months to really pick up shop and leave. i think companion crops really get out future generations but that's probably all dependent on the pest and crop. i keep meaning to plant red and yellow onion seeds tonight and keep forgetting!!! thanks!

be patient with the rosemary. it'll be rewarding soon enough, chives are just slow af any way you look it ime

I would love to grow a lot of rosemary and lavender to use against spider mites.
