Setting Luffa Trellis

It seems the most common trellis structure for luffa is chain link fence type. I may install one next year.

But this year, I only have bamboo sticks. The bamboo sticks are pretty strong, about 1.5" diameter. I'm thinking of running bamboo sticks every 5', and put on 4 to 5 horizontal bamboo sticks, up to about 8' to 10' tall. They will be linked with plastic zip ties. The plants can be spaced every 4'.

I'm just not sure if the structure will be sturdy enough for one season. Luffa can be heavy.
