Cloche Advice Please

[Raptor]

Does anyone know where to buy cloches shorter than the standard 10' length, please? I have a patch of ground which is about 4' wide, and I'm looking for something that will protect seeds sown straight into the ground. We have an abundance of slugs, birds and mice - help!

Don't want to disappoint you Raptor, but cloches won't stop slugs or mice!! If you still want to use cloches why not make your own? My neighbour on the lottie has made some to fit her raised beds, using plastic curtain track for the hoops, and net curtains for the coverings. Works well, and you can make them any size you want.

That's what I was going to say.
I have to sow most things in modules, then plant out. Direct sowings just get eaten
