I usually put woven wire hoops over newly lined out seedlings to keep
the critters from digging plus to moderate temperatures and
evaporation. I have a roll of 'hog' fence woven wire that I bought for
a project that never got done, so have been using half rounds cut off of
the roll to make hoops.
Will post a photo.
I've discovered I need to spray paint them with some kind of fluorescent
paint to keep from walking into them and running over them with the
tractor. Rusty woven wire hoops are almost invisible at dusk and dawn!
