FAQs

What lengths are the tunnel covers available in?

The covers are available in 2.9m, 3.9m, 4.9m, and 5.9m lengths.

Can I use these covers with hoops from other brands?

While designed for Gardening Naturally's green and black flexible hoops, they should fit most standard flexible garden hoop systems. Check dimensions if unsure.

Which cover material is best for frost protection?

For frost protection, Fleece, Thermacrop, or Polythene covers are recommended as they help retain warmth around plants.

Do the covers allow water to reach the plants?

Netting and mesh options, such as Veggiemesh and Butterfly Netting, are permeable and allow air and moisture to pass through.

How do I secure the covers?

The covers can be secured using garden clips, pegs, or ties to keep them in place.

Can I replace a cover without buying new hoops?

Yes, the covers can be easily swapped out, allowing you to reuse your existing hoops while changing the type or length of protection.

How do I clean the tunnel covers?

Gently wipe the covers with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Avoid using harsh cleaning chemicals.

Troubleshooting

Cover is loose or prone to blowing off.

Ensure hoops are securely placed and spaced appropriately. Use additional pegs or clips along the edges and potentially at the hoop points for a tighter fit.

Pests are still finding their way under the cover.

Check for gaps around the base of the cover. Ensure the cover is adequately secured to the ground with pegs or weights. For very small pests, consider using the Ultra Fine Veggiemesh option.

Condensation build-up inside the cover.

This is normal, especially with polythene covers. For netting and mesh covers, air circulation is usually sufficient. If using polythene, consider temporarily lifting one end during warmer parts of the day for ventilation.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Offers comprehensive protection against a range of garden pests and environmental factors.
  • Multiple material options cater to diverse gardening needs, from insect exclusion to frost defence.
  • Reusable and adaptable, allowing users to change protection levels without buying new hoop systems.
  • Simple to install and secure, making season-to-season transitions quick.
  • Compatible with widely available green and black flexible garden hoops.

Cons

  • Requires separate purchase of compatible garden hoops if not already owned.
  • Polythene covers may not allow for as much air circulation as mesh options.
  • Extremely high winds may still dislodge unsecured covers.
  • Smaller sizes might not offer enough headroom for taller growing plants without additional support.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setting up your Gardening Naturally Garden Tunnel Covers is straightforward. Ensure you have compatible flexible garden hoops (available in green or black). Place the hoops at your desired spacing over your planting area. Drape the tunnel cover over the hoops, ensuring it fits snugly. Secure the edges of the cover to the ground using garden pegs, clips, or by tying them to the hoops to prevent uplift from wind. These covers are compatible with both green and black flexible garden hoop tunnels. To care for your covers, gently clean them with a damp cloth to remove soil or debris. Avoid using harsh chemicals. Store them in a dry place when not in use to prolong their lifespan.
