Looking for a flexible way to add structure or shelter to your garden setup? In this video, I’m testing out a new tool that I wish I found sooner — extendable garden poles!
Whether you’re growing in containers like me or working with raised beds or ground plots, these poles make it super easy to:
Build custom plant shelters
Add seasonal shade or frost protection
Support climbing veggies and vines
Create trellises, tunnels, and more — right where you need them
I’ll show you how I’m using them in my small-space container garden here in Zone 10a. This is a simple, low-cost way to add BIG functionality to your garden without the hassle of permanent structures.
If you’re into DIY gardening hacks, container setups, or just looking to level up your growing game — this one’s for you.
Tool featured: garden pools
Location: Zone 10a (Northern California-style gardening)
Let me know in the comments how YOU would use these in your garden — I’m always looking for creative ideas!

Okay, this is my favorite little find and I wanted to share it with you guys. It’s from Amazon. These are the thinner um pools with extenders. So, you can make them as long or as short as you want to. And if you’re like me and all your veggies are in grow bags, this is super critical because you can build big ones or little ones, whatever it is you’re trying to solve for. I used to buy those pop-up tents, which are great, but they’re really expensive and I have like 40 grow bags in my yard. So, this is just a lower cost alternative. And again, I like the flexibility because I can make it big or small. And then you just cover it with your plastic, your screen, your netting, whatever it is you’re trying to solve for. The little boxes come with the clips and the extenders and a bunch of rods. I can’t remember how many. I’m not an affiliate seller or anything like that. I just wanted to share. It’s on Amazon. If you search for it, you’ll find it. But a lower cost alternative to some of the pop-up tents.
