The clamps are clever. I'm going to use this method for sure.

Great video, I have a similar system though I found bungee rope or the elastic bands used in gyms perfect for keeping the netting tight on the ground and stops the gale force winds from lifting the netting.

Well, the clamps are free and that has benefits for me. they are still going strong from the first batch. Need to make more hoops to combat the onion fly now.

Great job Jason. Don't think I've ever seen them made with water pipe before it's usually the white piping but that looks much more substantial. Keep the videos coming, always interesting and informative. Take care, Poo

It's mainly blue pipe round mine. As it comes in rolls it has a natural curve to it. A 25m roll is enough to make 15 arches and their clamps - which would be enough to do ne of my long beds and two smaller bend depending on hoop spacing (2-3 feet)

Hi. Wondering how you slit the small blue tubes, I've tried various scissors and secateurs but with no luck. What tool is it that you are using please? Thanks 😊
@jasons-jungle
2 ай бұрын
I put them in a vice and use a saw to cut them. I've also found that making 2 saw cuts and taking about a 5mm strip out makes them easier to get on but still have the gripping power. The rounded off bits at the end I used my tinsnips which are great - I happen to also play around with jewellery so I had these to hand, I expect if you are using a small hand saw you could also "nibble" at the edges to make them roundish.

Not sure if a spray would deter the pigeons round mine as there are so many that one peck per bird would still clear a crop. Does it work on parrots? The netting also helps plants survive hail stones and heavy rain which can flatten plants but bounce off the netting slowing the impact.

Good tutorial Jason - did you scrounge or buy the pipe and netting. Love the clip idea! cheers

I actually bought them -still have half the roll of pipe in the garage waiting to be cut up. I'll eventually have the pipe in each bed permanently with metal rebar replacing the white plastic tubes inside. I did scrounge green netting but as the ble and red light is absorbed and plants can't use green light I decided to buy blue netting as blue light promotes vegetative growth.

This is ingenious! I’m a beginner but the video is so easy to follow. I’ve found a source for the blue pipe but I’m unsure about the dimensions and weight/ thickness of the netting - do you have any suggestions? Many thanks 🌻🌷

I got a 3m wide roll of netting off ebay. If you have any construction work in your area using scaffold, you can ask them what they do with the netting and ask if you could have it. Often they will bin it but they may let you have it for free of for a small charge. I have green netting that came with my plot and blue netting which I bought (because i think i get better results with blue)

Why blue? Any particular reason?
@jasons-jungle

my thought is that the blue netting let's blue light through which is used by plants for vegetative growth and absorbs the red and green. Red light is used by plants for fruits g but green light is not used by plants at all.

Could you use this for a raised bed?

Yes, I use them on my raised beds. For a 8 foot by 4 foot bed I use 10 foot (3m) wide netting, 3 or 4 10 foot long hoops and a couple of 8 foot (or several smaller) canes to use as ridge poles to link the hoops together and stabilise them
