A lot of people use bent water pipe if you can find it , or drape it over roofing battens, banged in where you need them...easy peasy

I like the idea of the bent water-pipe (blue?). I saw some on sale the other day but avoided looking at the price!

I use lengths of rough cut, pressure treated timber, cut to length according to the crop. Just bang 'em in & drape the netting over as a previous poster said.

DD: I think yours may be more susceptible to "Snow collapse", under the weight of snow, than water pipe?  My water pipe just bent out of the way under heavy snow load - although of course it would have been better if I had un-draped the netting before the snow came

It's survived thus far.

Hmmm ... maybe I'll throw away my blue pipe then!
