Made from strong spun bonded 60gsm permeable fleece which is tear resistant and UV stabilised for long life, it will help to warm up the soil for earlier harvesting of crops and protects against freezing temperatures.

Made from UV stabilised heavy duty polyethylene, it incorporates a zipper in the design which lines up with the main Popadome Frame zipper, ensuring easy access to the protected growing area.
Insect Mesh Cover Only
A superb solution for the protection of your plants from smaller flying insects, this insect mesh netting cover fits easily over the top of the Popadome Frame (above).

Product Reviews
I’ve just received my third popadome, so obviously I think they are excellent. But I’d like to echo Stephen Appleby’s recent comment. The fabric tubes on my original dome’s butterfly net have disintegrated over the years, so I have to use clips to hold the net in place. Why not offer customers the chance to buy replacement netting?
Many thanks for your comments which we greatly appreciate and have been passed onto our R & D Dept to investigate this further. However they are keen to ensure that any re-design does not add additional charges to the current cost effective crop protection solution.
I've erected the dome but it'd not yet in use so cannot rate Product Performance. Otherwise, okay.
This is a very good product, my only gripe is the inability to buy replacement Butterfly netting separately. Why is this?
Many thanks for your feedback, we have passed your comments onto our Purchasing Dept. to look into the possibility of supplying the netting separately.

What to Buy - Plastic Greenhouses - Top Pick
This comes with glass fibre poles, an easy access zip and a copper strip along the base to deter slugs and snails. The netting allows access for pollinating insects. A plastic cover can be bought separately. Top Pick: Best for Versatility. This is a good product in itself for keeping out birds and butterflies, but if you add the polythene cover it is an effective mini-greenhouse too.
