Pea and bean netting
« on: March 19, 2012, 10:32 »
Can someone recommend any if this is no good?

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PEA-AND-BEAN-NETTING-SWEET-PEAS-RUNNER-GARDEN-/400136358596?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item5d29fc4ac4

I have had a look around, but most of what people are selling seems to be for cover protection and not for pea and bean use

Thanks

Netting is a nightmare to get your old plants off and re-use again.

I grow runner beans up canes and peas are supported a shown in this infamous thread:

Did it really tell you to do THAT on the packet?

they trimmed the tops off the hedges round our site, I have kept all the bits that fell into my plot as pea sticks. since 2 sides of my plot has hedges.

I was going to use it for my climbing peas and then put it in my composter on the basis that I'd get to use it again eventually...  :lol:

No Don't Do It!

there was some at the bottom of the compost on my plot when I took it on.
When I turned it out to dig the compost in - it drove mw to distraction- it kept getting caught on the fork and tying itself up in knots  :wacko:

Ooh, thanks for the tip Mum. I shall give the boys a small pair of scissors and tell them to get on with it (in my dreams)!  :lol:
