Hoops for cloches? - Broadway - 09-07-2020
Hello Folks
Looking at these for next year, so far I’ve seen/read about MDPE and Conduit, do people have views on what’s best or perhaps there is something else you use?
I can't see a lot of price different plus the conduit is already cut into lengths (obviously only good if the lengths are what you want
)

I bought a roll of the blue pipe and cut it to length.
Also used black ?conduit that came in lengths for hoops/arches.

Black will likely be more resistant to sun degradation.

I’ve got light grey pipe which I’ve been using for around 8-9 years now. Zero degradation to date, stays flexible, can’t remember where it came from but, it stays out all winter I will look to see if there is still something written on it.
