What Makes a Polyester Trellis Netting Different
The string, and the way it is made. This one is woven, while the 4 ft rolls are non-woven. The difference is real. A woven string net gives under load and settles around a stem, where an extruded grid holds its shape and makes you fight it. This roll is 5 ft by 15 ft, in white.
Why the 6 in Mesh Is the Square to Start With
You can get a hand through it. A 6 in opening takes a hand and a tomato back out at harvest. The net stays on the row instead of being cut off it. The strings are soft and non-burning, which is the point of polyester here. Tender vines and fruit are not scored where they cross. Fifteen feet is the short roll, though. It covers one bed or a single layer in a tent, and a room runs through it quickly. Sag comes down to tie points rather than the net itself. Put one every 12 to 18 in. Hang the first layer 8 to 16 in above the medium in late veg.
Key Features
- 5 ft by 15 ft: The short roll in the 5 ft wide range, for one bed or one tent layer.
- Woven, not extruded: A woven construction rather than a non-woven one.
- 6 in reach-through square: A hand and fruit pass back out, so the net survives harvest.
- Soft, non-burning polyester: Tender vines and fruit are not scored where they cross a string.
- 5 ft wide over a 4 ft bench: About 6 in a side to tie off outside the growing area.
- Sag control: Tie points every 12 to 18 in are what actually control sag.
- Longer rolls in the family: 5 ft x 30 ft and 5 ft x 350 ft on the same woven 6 in mesh.
