Hello all,

Some may recall that on Gardeners World about 2 months or so ago,
Toby Wossisname made a type of cloche using flexible blue water pipe
to form the ribs of a very useful looking cloche - perfect for raised
beds such as I have for vegetable growing. I have acquired the piping
and have more than enough wood for the lower frame but am finding it
rather difficult to get hold of the strong plastic cover. Ironically
when we moved to our current home there was an ageing poly tunnel
which I sold to (ironically) the estate agent through whom we bought the house.

Does anyone have an idea as to the gauge of plastic necessary for
such a job. I want to make 3 of these cloches and while the ground is
so wet I could get on with making them - if only I knew what to buy
in the way of plastic sheeting.

I also tried to review the programme through the BBC I-player but it
seems to be past its sell by date now. Any help or advice very welcome.

Thanks.

a website with pictures and plans (that cost) if you want them. I did
without the plans.

That's the sort of thing .... a bit smaller than I want ... and it has
handles, very posh :-))

Now I think I have the info and direction I need.

Many thanks
