The netting house is made from: 4x4x9' posts (2' into ground) with high tensile wire string between them, tensioned using gripples, covered in 25g Protekt net (which came from a 20.5' x 328' roll sewed together in three strips per patch to make it big enough), wind fence round the perimeter, and meeting held down at the perimeter sandwiched between weed barrier and sand. It was a lot of work. Both patches will have their own. I very strongly dislike cucumber beetles.
