The wigwam can be constructed individually or in series as in the above diagram. If you are building a single one in an exposed area then you could use a sturdy central post to give the structure more strength.
Hopefully you would have prepared some soil and around that soil you should mark out a 3 foot diameter circle. Firmly push 8 - 10 of your 8 foot bamboo canes or sturdy poles around the circumference and attach at the top with decent string leaving an overlap of about 10 inches.
If building in series then leave about 18 inches between frames and using canes join the wigwams at the intersections and tie in.
Your wigwams are now ready for your seeds or young plants.
