Tenax - Hortonova Trellis - HTN LM 59" W 5.9"x6.7"

Brand: Tenax

HORTONOVA LM is the polypropylene trellis mesh that replaced iron trellises, metal mesh and perishable bamboo in climbing vegetable production. One lightweight roll goes up in a fraction of the time a rigid structure takes, and it does the same job for less labor.

Tenax manufactures it through a dual stretching and extrusion process, which is what gives a mesh this light its strength. In laboratory aging equivalent to two seasons of Mediterranean sun, the transverse threads still held 85% of their original tensile strength.

Why Growers Use Trellis Net

• More light on the crop - training plants up an open mesh exposes more leaf area and drives photosynthesis
• Better air movement through the canopy, which lowers disease pressure and cuts the chemical program that follows it
• Cleaner fruit - vegetables hang free rather than resting on soil
• Lower labor cost - no tying individual plants to stakes, and no dismantling a rigid structure at season end

Crops

Peas, beans, tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, eggplant, zucchini and climbing pumpkins.

Installation

Hang the net vertically from a support wire stretched between posts set 10 to 15 feet apart, and secure with staples, U-staples or PVC stretch ties. Plants climb the mesh on their own as they grow.
