Re: Cloches
i build my cloches to be 16x16.....at this time of year i open them up all
the way in the day. if its going to be windy, i pull the sheeting in such a
manner that it also works as wind protection. At night, i close up the
cloche, and if its warmer then usual, i'll leave a little flap open for air
circulation. i dont like to remove it completely till the vines are a good
distance in length and anchored well, and even then, i leave the sheeting
around just in case a nasty storm is headed my way. The only time i'm
totally off the cloche is when the plants have outgrown the 16x16 structure.
