Please sell corner Tube Connectors Tube Connectors Mini Polytunnels & Sunbubbles

Hello,

I had my first season with the blue pipe tunnel over my raised bed. The curve in the sides of the tunnel causes the plants to grow pressed against the netting, therefore allowing white butterflies to be able to reach in and lay their eggs on the leaves. The roof of the tunnel is also too low, the broccoli grows tight against the roof part of the netting. Both these problems can be resolved by straightening the ‘legs’ of the tunnel and making it a box shape, instead of a rounded tunnel. I need corner Tube Connectors to be able make that modification.

I see from another question you sell only the “star” shape connectors but can you please enquire from (suggest to) your supplier if they can make corner connecters also ? It will widen the use/options (their market) of these connectors tremendously.

One corner connector should be for extending a ‘box shape’, and one corner connector should be for the corners of the ‘box shape’.

Thanks,

Andre

Hi Andre. Thank you for your suggestions. Yes, I accept that the mini tunnel may be too small for a large brassica plant like broccoli, it is not really suitable for tall plants. We manufacture the mini tunnel parts ourselves and unfortunately the cost of producing new moulds for new components is currently prohibitive. We will look at this in the future bur may I suggest that the Mainframe crop protection system may be more suitable for your needs as it has a wider choice of connectors and tubes and is a straight sided option.
