What a 2,275 Square Foot Nylon Trellis Netting Roll Actually Covers
One roll runs 6.5 ft wide by 350 ft long, which is 2,275 sq ft of canopy support on 6 in reach-through squares. At the 20 ft post spacing most rooms are built to, that is about seventeen spans off a single roll. It is the widest of the three soft nylon rolls in the line, and it carries the most netting of any of them. A pair of Trojan 2 in straight scissors ships in the same box, which is what you cut the roll to length with.
Where Soft Mesh Trellis Netting Beats the Plastic Line
Nylon is the gentler of the two Common Culture materials. The strands flex rather than holding a hard edge. That shows up on heavy colas in late flower, and on tomatoes swelling against the squares. Most growers run it flat, one layer just above the pot rim and a second about a foot higher. The canopy then grows up through it and fills the openings. Snake a monofilament line through the top row between posts and the middle of the run stops sagging. The honest limit is sun. Nylon takes on water and softens under long UV exposure. A field run that has to survive several seasons is better served by the plastic roll. Indoors and under greenhouse plastic it will outlast the crop cycles you put through it.
Key Features
- 2,275 sq ft per roll: 6.5 ft x 350 ft, the widest soft nylon roll in the Common Culture line.
- 6 in reach-through squares: Wide enough to get a hand through and tuck a branch without tearing leaves.
- Soft nylon strands: They give under load, so heavy colas rest on the mesh instead of being cut by it.
- Horizontal or vertical: Flat layers for a trained canopy, upright runs for peas, beans and cucumbers.
- Trojan 2 in straight scissors included: Stainless straight blades with an extra spring, in the same box as the roll.
- Built around 20 ft post spacing: Roughly seventeen spans per roll at the bay width most rooms already use.
- White mesh: Easy to see against dark foliage when you are threading a branch through.
