FAQs

How far apart should I space the hoops?

It is recommended to place each hoop 1 metre apart to maintain structural stability.

Can I use these in raised beds?

Yes, provided there is enough soil depth to push the hoops in securely.

What is the minimum width of netting required for the small hoops?

You require a minimum of 2.1m wide netting or fleece for the small hoop size.

Are these hoops rust-proof?

Yes, they are made of aluminium, which is durable and designed to stay outdoors year-round.

Do I need any tools to set them up?

No, the design is strictly tool-free and meant for quick, manual installation.

Troubleshooting

Hoops feel wobbly in the bed.

Ensure they are pushed deep enough into the soil; if the soil is loose, pack it firmly around the base.

Netting is sagging between hoops.

Verify that your spacing is at or under 1 metre and check that the netting is pulled taut before using the clips.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Resistant to outdoor weather conditions
  • Tool-free, straightforward installation
  • Versatile for both fleece and netting usage
  • Compatible with walk-in cage components
  • Provides reliable physical protection for crops

Cons

  • Requires significant soil depth for stability
  • Limited to specific netting widths for proper coverage
  • Not suitable for containers without sufficient soil mass

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setting up the hoops is simple: identify your spacing (1 metre intervals) and push the ends firmly into the ground. If you are using raised beds, ensure there is enough soil depth to support the feet of the hoops. Use the provided clips to snap your chosen fabric securely to the frame. Because these hoops use standard tubing dimensions, they are fully compatible with Gardening Naturally's range of walk-in cage fittings. To maintain them, simply wipe the aluminium down with water if soil accumulates, though the material is inherently resistant to outdoor wear.
