Trying to keep the Crows out of the mellons. Didn't work to well and I got a few Snakes tangled up in the netting!<br />I want to build one this year. 10' x 12' and cover with 6 mil plastic and use it to extened the growing season.<br />TomTom Stewarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08617525385016644041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4059935180600513762.post-84005311994903921202012-03-03T01:35:18.971-05:002012-03-03T01:35:18.971-05:00Hey Tricia,

I thought about cutting them but thought I'd try it "tall" for now. The plastic is 4 mm, not too heavy. I could roll each side up but I'll likely only roll the south side up.Tamihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06597093453934852571noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4059935180600513762.post-91099010014911867942012-03-02T21:26:01.801-05:002012-03-02T21:26:01.801-05:00Welcome to the party! :-)Welcome to the party! :-)Liisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09106496040776722982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4059935180600513762.post-40558214081973003442012-03-02T15:17:26.438-05:002012-03-02T15:17:26.438-05:00Nice!Nice!Jane @ Hard Work Homesteadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02905658082120445313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4059935180600513762.post-2295157339021175762012-03-02T10:08:31.377-05:002012-03-02T10:08:31.377-05:00We did the exact same thing with our (few) raised ...We did the exact same thing with our (few) raised beds last year! I have spinach, onions, lettuce and peas in there already! Don't know why we didn't think of it before either.

Ours seemed to be very heavy and not easy to access what was inside. Of course yours is over raised beds, which might make a difference?<br /><br />Looking forward to seeing how it works for you! April 15th last frost??? Ours is May 15. No wonder we want to move south.Triciahttp://www.lettherebegarden.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4059935180600513762.post-5480107853389861062012-03-02T07:58:49.769-05:002012-03-02T07:58:49.769-05:00Wonderful, Tami - I'm so excited for you.
