Product Information

Full details

Gardening Naturally's Heavy Duty Tri Pegs are designed for gardeners who need a secure and reliable way to fasten garden fleece and netting. The key benefit is their superior holding power in various soil types and windy conditions, preventing covers from shifting and ensuring consistent plant protection. A potential caveat is that their 20cm length might require firm pushing into very hard soil. These pegs feature a central barbed design for deep anchoring and two outer prongs that gently rest on covering materials, offering a robust solution for protecting crops and plants in home gardens, allotments, and raised beds.

FAQs

Can these garden netting and fleece pegs be reused each season?

Yes, they can be used repeatedly across different gardening seasons if stored properly after cleaning.

Will the pegs work in clay soil?

Yes, the barbed design provides excellent grip in clay, sandy, or loamy soil.

Do these pegs damage netting or fleece?

No, the outer prongs rest gently on the material, distributing pressure and preventing tearing.

Can these pegs be used for securing garden fabric or membranes?

Yes, they are suitable for securing garden fabric, membranes, and similar ground covers.

How many pegs should I use per metre of fleece or netting?

It is recommended to use a peg approximately every 50cm for best results, increasing density in windy areas or at edges.

Are these garden fleece pegs suitable for allotment use?

Yes, they are ideal for allotments where secure fixing of fleece and netting is essential, especially in exposed or windy positions.

What is the material of the pegs?

The pegs are manufactured from PE (Polyethylene).

Troubleshooting

Pegs are difficult to insert into the soil.

Slightly moisten the soil around the insertion point, or use a rubber mallet to gently tap the peg into harder ground. Ensure no large stones are obstructing the path.

Fleece or netting is still lifting in high winds.

Ensure pegs are inserted to their full depth. Add more pegs, placing them closer together (e.g., every 30-40cm), especially around corners and exposed edges.

Pegs feel loose after insertion.

Check the soil type. In very loose or sandy soil, try to angle the peg slightly during insertion to engage the barbs more effectively. Ensure no underground roots or rocks are preventing deep anchoring.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent holding power in windy conditions and loose soil.
  • Barbed design offers strong grip across different soil types.
  • Gentle on fabric materials, preventing damage.
  • Durable and reusable for multiple gardening seasons.
  • Environmentally friendly due to recyclability.

Cons

  • May require significant force to insert into very hard or compacted soil.
  • The 20cm length might be overkill for very light, temporary applications.
  • Requires proper cleaning for optimal longevity and recyclability.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To use, simply push the central barbed peg firmly into the soil until the base is secure. Ensure the two outer prongs are positioned over your garden fleece or netting, resting them gently on the material. For optimal stability, it is recommended to place a peg approximately every 50cm along the edge of your covering.

Compatibility: These pegs are compatible with most garden fleece, netting, Thermacrop, garden fabric, and ground membranes. They are suitable for use in various soil types, including clay, sand, and loam.

Care: After use, remove the pegs from the soil and clean off any excess dirt. Store them in a dry place to prolong their lifespan. As they are made from PE, they are 100% recyclable; ensure they are clean before disposal to comply with recycling guidelines.
