Concrete or anchor spikes for garden fence?
I need some advice on a garden fence. We're planning a fence around our background garden which is roughly 25'x13'. We'll have 11 4x4 posts around the perimeter. These are overkill and mostly for aesthetics because we already have a fence around our yard so we're really just keeping out bunnies. When it comes to securing the posts, I feel like concrete is overkill. Someone suggested I look at anchor spikes but I've never used them before and their reputation seems mixed online (few mentions about gardens tho). Do I just stick them in the dirt and call it a day? Budget is less of an issue. I am mostly focused on it lasting long-term but I also like the idea of having something a little less painful to move/remove if we change our backyard or sell the house. submitted by /u/technichor [link] [comments]
