Are they set in concrete, just dirt, are they pressure treated or did you use concrete piers with post anchors? How did you secure these posts in the ground. Would it be tough to add another 4X4 to make 8' spans instead? That is what I would do, bag the 2x4's and use just the wire to train your vines. Use guy wires to secure the posts. 16 feet is way too long of a span. 2X4 will sag and the wire will pull the posts towards each other. 8 feet span with guy wires should do the trick. Tell us how you sunk those post...thanks! | |
