Hello

I've just picked up my first allotment and I'm going to plant some spring cabbages.

Where do you get the water pipe from that I see people using to hold up netting on their plots.

How much does it cost?

I'm going to order some debris netting off ebay :-)

[green fingers]

I got mine from a plumbers merchant.  Cant remember the price.  There might be some on Ebay too

  She's probably a lot younger than me

I just use lengths of pressure treated rough cut timber from the local DIY store. Length can be cut to suit the crop and the debris netting just rests on top & pegged in the ground.

here's the piccy of what the old girl next to me does, bottles everywhere.
she and her hubby have had the plot 49yrs and are both vegetarian's.

I use blue water pipe because I got it for free.  Balls on sticks worked well before that and bottles on sticks ditto.
