How are you going to deal with weeds/grass that grow up around the bottom of the fence? I've tried everything I can think of and I still get weeds/grass in the fenceline.
The good thing about a garden fence is you get to eat the veggies you grow instead of the deer and rabbits. The bad is that your garden is limited to that space and keeping weeds and grass out of the fence can be a pain. I let the grass grow along my fence as I feel it makes a great barrier from squirrels and rabbits going under. I take a propane torch to the weeds to keep them from growing too tall. It has worked well for me for the last nine years.
My neighbors don't maintain parts of their yard so my garden fence is always under attack from english ivy and other vines and overgrowth. I was given a propane torch this year and it has made keeping the fenceline clear a piece of cake. Two tips: 1. Have the garden hose handy. This thing will incinerate green vines in the rain (seriously). 2. don't buy the kind that uses the small camping size propane canister. It lacks the power you need.
It has also made my charcoal chimney obsolete and I can't wait to deice the front steps and walk with it next winter.
