Size of these cages and what they are made from

The cages stand 500mm high (1ft 7 inches) once erected and come with instructions, diagrams and a list of contents.

The 16mm uprights (legs) are pushed into the soil 100mm the tubes are 600mm (1ft 11 inches) long allowing for 100mm.

The connectors, either build a balls or joiners are used to connect the 13mm crossbars, these then connect to the legs.

The netting is laid over the cage and pegged down. It is not fitted as this would make it difficult on the larger cages to take off the netting with just one person.

Your crops should grow larger and be healthier with a bit of wind resistance provided by the netting which also stops insect pests and birds.

The cages can be covered with garden fleece over winter but would need extra pegs due to wind resistance.

Storing fruit and vegetable cages

The cages can be dismantled and stored easily when not in use.
