Pest protection at your fingertips from Garsons Garden Centre Esher
Seedlings are at their most vulnerable to pest damage, so protection is often the only way to stop slugs, caterpillars, aphids and fleabeetles turning those lovely young leaves into lacy doilies. As soon as you plant them, put your protection in place. Insect-proof mesh and fleece is very effective suspended over canes and pegged down at the edges. You'll find all protection for your plants at Garsons Garden Centre Esher in .
A cage of netting is the perfect protection from birds – use over fruit bushes as they're ripening, and to keep pigeons off brassicas. You'll find walk-in fruit cages in easy to assemble kits at the garden centre for convenient year-long protection; or for smaller-scale gardens, there are cloches covered in both netting and fleece to concertina out over a row in seconds.
Protection in all weathers
Extend the season at both ends with protection under glass or plastic cloches and cold frames. Cold frames are a great low-cost alternative to a greenhouse and invaluable for raising seedlings in spring and autumn.
Put polythene, glass or individual bell and lantern cloches in place a couple of weeks before you sow and it'll warm up the soil so your seeds germinate quicker. A cloche over parsley, chard and lettuce in autumn helps them stay productive longer, too.
