Yes, they are made from durable PVC designed to resist aging and material degradation from sunlight exposure.
These are primarily designed for seedlings, young plants, and flowers. They may not accommodate the height or width of fully matured shrubs.
The pack includes 80 stakes, providing four stakes for each of the 20 cloches.
Generally, no, as they are designed with ventilation. However, in extreme heat, you may want to remove them during the day to prevent plant stress.
Because they are reusable and durable, they reduce the need for single-use plastic covers, making them a more eco-friendly choice for consistent gardening.
If you are using them on a patio, they are most effective when placed over plants in pots where the stakes can be pushed into the potting soil.
Ensure all four stakes are utilized and pushed firmly into compacted soil at an outward angle.
Light condensation is normal; if the plant appears distressed or wilting, lift the edge of the cloche slightly to increase ventilation.
Gently rinse the exterior with water or wipe with a soft, damp cloth.
Setting up the cloches is a straightforward process. First, clear the area around your plant or seedling to ensure the cloche sits flush against the soil. Place the cloche centrally over the plant, then use the provided stakes to secure the unit through the integrated holes at the base. Ensure the stakes are pushed deep into the soil to prevent movement during wind gusts. For care, keep the exterior clean by wiping with a damp cloth periodically to ensure maximum light transmission. At the end of the season, wash the cloches with mild soap and water, dry them thoroughly, and store them in a cool, dry place to prolong their lifespan. They are compatible with a wide range of standard container sizes and can be easily moved between garden beds or patio pots as needed.
