Excellent, this is exactly what I needed to know right now..I couldn't find any at the big box stores so buying the cable is brilliant. I have my brassicas covered but they need the hoops. Thanks.
This video was so helpful-I have struggled for years with agribon supports. I did not want to bend conduit and have tried several methods for supports but the cable idea is brilliant and easy and I can’t wait to try it this summer.
Great video! Minor correction: These hoops are made from 9 gauge galvanized steel wire, not 9mm. (9mm would be double ought 00 gauge!) Easily available in the fencing section of Home Depot, Lowes or any farm supply house.
Glad to see this. About to start using covers for the first time...yeh need to keep those bugs out especially caterpillars that massacre brassica etc. That wire... awesome idea. Gonna look for that Lord willing. For now I'll use mosquito netting.
Can anyone link to the row covers? There are so many different types out there on amazon! Trying to find one as we will start our first garden bed this year and don't want it eaten up by bugs or birds. Does this cover allow for water to get through when it rains? Newbie question but to water the plants do you have to take the cover off?
What is the name of the 9mm cable/wire that you got from Tractor supply you used for the hoop? I tried to google it and also looked for it on the Tractor Supply, Lowes, and Home Depot websites and cannot find it.

life saver thank you
Heading out now to get some. Way better than pvc and rebar
.how do you cut it? Ty
I use linesman’s pliers, which are maybe $10 at Harbor Freight. The metal is soft and cuts easily.

where did you buy the supplies to make these?
Where did you buy the row cover from?
What did you use to cut the metal?
Where did you get your row covers?
What do I ask for in thickness of the hoop wire and what do I use to cut it with?

This guy was wrong. It is 9 gauge wire. Not 9 mm.
What thickness is the fabric?
Congrats
Anyone find the fabric yet?

Can u provide a list of everything you used so that i can get it. It doesnt have in the description.
Does it keep rabbits and deer off
Curious about how it does in a strong wind?
As long as you have enough bricks or sand bags you should be good.
