I have just brought a pack of build-a-balls and some bamboo canes. So far
cost me £15 for 12 build-a-balls and £2.80 for the canes. Already got some
material to cover it that I brought last year...

Looking to make improvised cloches using fleece or mesh for carrots and
brassicas. I have found steel rods for 83p per m for 12mm and found 15mm
plastic pipe at builders merchant (may be a bit slack). Has anyone done it
this way, perhaps with alkathene? I was thinking of 36 inch rods 18
inches in the ground. Beds are 5 ft across.

Would be interested to here of any success - dimensions, costs etc
