Debris netting - what's it like?

[Bigmallly]

I wouldn't dream of influencing your choice of colour but just in case you are doing a bit of colour co-ordinating.............

[veggiechicken]

I have to admit that I toyed with red or yellow! Its nice to be different

[lottie dolly]

VC the yellow will attract every and anything that flies,also does the color affect the growing conditions,i have the green,as thats what we got free from the scaffold company,it does help with a bit of shade this high heat,

[Shadylane]

I prefer black. I'm not keen on netting and black seems to be the least offensive to me. It doesn't seem to affect growing. The calabrese and caulies are still crap just like previous netting free years.

Mines blue cos I used to have a blue shed

[veggiechicken]

Mine will be in my garden, under trees, and I want it to be bright and cheerful.
I'd be concerned that birds might fly into black netting - anyway its boring

'Tie and dye' debri netting would be my choice though!

I thought it might hamper growth having put it up, but it doesn't seem to at all. It does hamper weeding a bit, if I was doing it again next year I think I'd look to get some enviromesh for my brassicas something I could drape over which wouldn't be too heavy to stunt their growth.

The debris netting seems to make a good climbing frame for peas the tendrils get a good hold on it, and my neighbour uses it as a wind break, on the end of his plot so I have a number of alternative uses for it next year. Might even cover my strawberries with it.

I'm thinking...........rabbit proof enclosures, trampoline draping, suspended from the side of the shed to make an awning for sheltered over wintering, throwing over fruit bushes as birds get tangled in ordinary netting, shading for the GH, draping over peach tree.............should I order 2 rolls,

Bought a roll off Ebay got black came in a roll about 4ft long and 6inch diameter
weighed very little easy to cut with scissors
Not sowed the holes up.
Works well at keeping things out
They do two greens bright green and very very bright green
Black is not noticeable from a distance

Well I'd suggest you take up scaffolding, I think you'll need a fair bit!!!

[veggiechicken]

Thanks green thing. The greens have been puzzling me because the retailers' roll is dark green and doesn't look like the blueygreen that I see on most people's cages. I don't want dark green - I'd like the bright sunny sky colour

It looks darker coz it's all bunched up on the roll - get a bit of air to it in one layer and it's look much sunnier.
