A range of one piece, easy to use Tunnel Cloches designed to provide protection against frosts, harsh weather and pests.
Galvanised steel hoops incorporated into high quality UV stabilised fabrics during manufacture to form sturdy cloches supplied fully assembled.
Simply extend the cloches to the length required and push the hoop ends into the soil to secure firmly in place.
Ends of the cloches can be positioned open, partially open or fully closed for complete protection, or overlap the end of one tunnel with another to create even longer cloches.
For easy access and storage, the hoops of the cloches can be pulled from the ground and the cloche closed back, hoop against hoop.
Three models available: Polythene, Net and Fleece.
Two sizes available:
- Standard - 10' (3 metres) long x 18" (46cm) wide x 12" (31cm) high in centre
- Large - 10' (3 metres) long x 24" (61cm) wide x 18" (46cm) high in centre.
The illustration shows the Net Tunnel Cloche.Polythene Tunnels - for complete protection against the elements.
The tough 150 micron polyethylene cover forms a complete barrier against the elements, retaining humidity and warmth. Ideal for winter and early spring vegetables, use the cloches to warm the soil prior to planting out and leave in place to encourage early growth and produce healthy earlier crops.
Fleece Tunnels - for warmth and insulation
A high grade 30gsm polypropylene fleece creates warmth and insulation whilst allowing water and sunlight to filter through. Use to encourage spring vegetables to ripen earlier by maintaining a constant temperature and protection.
Net Tunnels - for shading and pest protection
High density polyethylene netting (5mm mesh) provides shading from strong sunlight, protection from insects, birds and other pests and acts as an excellent windbreak. The cloches are ideal for summer crops and pest protection. |
