How to build a fruit cage or polytunnel

18-04-2010, 07:19 AM

Four years on and I'm still constructing things on my allotment. Latest is a fruit cage from free water piping, easily changed to a poly tunnel if required.

To access the plans and instructions click the link below. It's the current posting, but if you're reading this more than a week after writing you'll find a link to the plans and lots more resources under the Welcome section on the top right.

Hope the ideas help someone.

Thanks, John

will the pollinators get into do their job as it's rather fine,and the larger black slots might not be enough,i had some on a tunnell and replaced it with the black pond netting,when i put the fruit in it the other week,i used small wire ties to join it all together,with a separate loose bit for the door,i put some headed nails in about every 1ft,around the door frame,and hooked it to them,very easy to get in and out,
