Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:
- Lay the Veggiemesh directly over your plants or position garden hoops or cages.
- Ensure enough slack is provided to accommodate plant growth.
- Secure the edges of the netting using netting pegs, clips, or by burying them firmly into the soil to prevent pests from entering underneath.
Compatibility:
This netting is suitable for a wide range of vegetables, including brassicas, carrots, leeks, onions, peas, salads, and seedlings. For fruiting plants that depend on insect pollination (e.g., tomatoes, strawberries, beans), the netting may need to be temporarily lifted or removed during the flowering stage to allow bees and other pollinators access. For very small pests like whitefly or flea beetles, the standard 1.35mm mesh may not be sufficient; consider an ultrafine mesh option.
Care:
To clean, gently brush off any debris. If washing is required, use a mild detergent and rinse thoroughly. Allow the netting to dry completely before storing to prevent mold and mildew. Store in a dry, protected area away from direct sunlight to prolong its lifespan.
