Product Reviews
Good quality fleece covers to protect frost-sensitive plants growing in the ground outdoors. Sometimes, if the frost forecast is particularly severe, I may use 2 or 3 covers together, to provide extra layers of protection.
I bought 4 of these to cover produce on my raised beds which was being attacked by birds;. they are so much easier to use than the netting and posts used previously . Erecting is simple but much easier with 2 people to thread the supports through Once made up they are easy to move. Unfortunately after a couple of seasons and despite being stored in winter the green canvas has faded to a muddy grey- green. The zips are a problem as they soon start to stick. I am currently trying Graphite on one and WD -40 on another but the latter also stains the canvas
