Where a 16 Foot Hydrofarm Trellis Netting Roll Goes
A single bed, or one tent. At 4 ft wide by 16 ft long this is the small roll in a family that runs out to 3,280 ft. It covers roughly four 4 ft beds end to end, or one 4 by 4 with slack left for a second layer. Step up to the 100 ft roll if you net more than that.
Why the 6 in Mesh Is the Square Most Growers Reach For
Two reasons, both practical. A 6 in square is wide enough to put a hand and snips through at harvest. The net comes off in one piece instead of being cut away. And fewer, thicker strands across a span hold tension under a loaded canopy rather than sagging into it. The material is non-woven high density polyethylene, an extruded grid rather than a knitted soft mesh. It keeps its shape under weight, which is what you want for training, though it is stiffer to weave branches through than a soft net. It does not rot and it is not biodegradable, so it comes back next cycle. Strip the plant matter, then soak it 20 to 30 minutes in water with hydrogen peroxide or dilute bleach. Hang the first layer 8 to 12 in above the containers in veg. Put a second 6 to 8 in above that for a heavy flowering canopy.
Key Features
- 4 ft x 16 ft roll: The short length in the range, for one bed or a single tent.
- 6 in reach-through mesh: A hand and snips pass through at harvest without cutting the net.
- Non-woven HDPE grid: Extruded plastic, not a knitted soft mesh, so it holds its shape.
- Holds tension under load: Fewer, thicker strands per span, so it does not sag into the canopy.
- Reusable between cycles: Strip it, then soak 20 to 30 minutes in peroxide or dilute bleach.
- Stiffer than a soft net: Better for training, harder to weave irregular branches through.
- Longer rolls in the family: 50 ft, 100 ft, 328 ft and 3,280 ft, all 4 ft wide on the same mesh.
