Product Reviews
Can be a little fiddly the screws are quite small, I have used bracing as the veggie garden is quite high and does catch the wind, all my beds are the same size so I can move the frames I already have to rotate planting
Ordered in good time a 3 metre long bean frame with netting for this year's sowings. It took NEARLY TWO WEEKS to arrive and by that point all my sowings were ruined so had to resow everything all over again, thereby delaying this year's harvests! Thanks a lot. If you plan on ordering this product, order it a year early.

Our horticulturist Martin Fiddes says; "A reliable pea and bean support frame is a must if you want to grow a decent crop of these staple garden vegetables and that means the netting as well as the framework.
It's usually difficult to reach through to pick pods in the middle of a traditional frame but this netting allows you to do so easily and taking the frame down and storing it - another common problem - is made really simple.
To get the most from your legume crop and the frame, try digging and filling a bean trench with well rotted organic matter a couple of weeks before planting, make sure peas and beans precede brassicas in your crop rotation and sow pea seeds in guttering to boost germination rates (and protect from mice) before sliding out into a planting drill or furrow".

Product Review on Plant Supports
KG Verdict - A strong performer for peas and Beans. A tall , strong, frame for peas and climbing beans. The assembly takes a little while, but the system is simple and the end result robust. The frame fits neatly into a 1.2m (4ft) wide raised bed and I used extra ties to hold it in place. Sweet peas may need a bit of directing to get them started, but tendrils soon grip the net after that. Beans have plenty of support as the plants climb. This system gives an even distribution of foliage on both sides.
