Package contains 8 black hoop pvc rods 900mm (2ft 11in) long and 10mm in diameter, 6 anchors, 2 T-s and 1 Cross. This will create a 3-hoop tunnel without netting.
- Use the add-on's for extras or to create a larger tunnel.
- Be sure to select your netting and the # of feet required to cover the frame. We recommend 10 feet for a 3-hoop tunnel.
The rods used to create the hoops are the same rods which are used for the crossbars, you just bend two rods slightly and connect them with a joiner to create your hoop.
If two rods are connected together with a joiner, the finished hoop will be 1.8m in length and once bent, will stand approximately 600mm (2ft) high and 1.2m (4ft) wide; they are flexible so this is just an example.
The hoops can go as narrow as 30" wide and this will increase the height slightly.
Use the hoops all year round with fleece, polythene or Thermacrop to bring on early crops then change the netting for insect, butterfly or bird protection.
Minimum fabric width for creating tunnels/cloches = 1.8m (5ft 10in). If the hoops are erected 1.2m (4ft) wide they will stand approx. 600mm (2ft) high. Space at approximately 3 feet apart.
Choose between black butterfly netting or insect netting.
