What Comes Off a Roll of 120 In Trellis Netting
The roll is 120 in wide and 100 ft long. That is ten feet of width, so one roll covers a thousand square feet of bench or canopy. Part number 1A170308 is the Tenax Hortonova in its large mesh pattern. The openings are 5.9 in by 6.7 in, with mesh varying by up to 10% either way. The material is polypropylene, UV treated, and resistant to bacteria, chemicals and mould. Tensile strength is 78 lb per foot of width. That figure is the one worth noting on a horizontal run, because it is what holds a canopy of heavy fruit off the floor. The net is flexible rather than rigid, so it goes up on stakes, posts or a frame without special fittings. Its barcode is 010515703082.
Picking a Large Mesh Trellis Net Over a Fine One
Mesh size is the whole decision, and it comes down to what passes through the opening. A large opening lets a hand through to tuck, train and harvest without fighting the net. It also suits heavy fruiting crops, where a tight grid cuts into stems as they swell. A finer mesh gives more support points per square foot, which suits light stems and cut flowers that want holding upright rather than carrying weight. The narrower 94 in family suits that job. Roll length is the second choice and it is purely about scale. This is the shortest roll in the family, with 500 ft, 1500 ft and 3280 ft rolls of the same width available. Work out the run length before choosing, because a part roll left over is wasted net rather than stock. There is one practical caution with any polypropylene trellis net. It is reusable in principle, and in practice a horizontal net full of spent plant material usually gets cut out rather than cleaned. Treat the long rolls as a consumable cost per cycle, not as a one-off fixture.
