How is it in Russian? - Supports for tomatoes

I do not like to write bad reviews, unfortunately, this is the case now... I hope my not the best experience will help someone. And I will share one successful find at the end.

At first I liked the idea:

• Supports for tomatoes made of plastic tubes - will not heat up in the sun
• The height of 1.65 m fit me under ten street tomatoes
• And I planned to use these supports in the early spring instead of arches to cover early vegetables.
• And the manufacturer is Russian, it's kind of reliable.

The design seems simple, it is, but... If something goes wrong, tubes and crosses willingly break.

Call the manufacturer

At first, we did not manage to assemble the top ring at all. We decided to call the manufacturer. Ask for a hint how to combine this goodness. Obviously, I didn’t explain the situation clearly. A woman's voice calmly informed me:

- So you are out of standard. Where did you buy?

- In the online store Lucky season.

- Contact the store, return the support, and we will replace you.

After such advice, my gift of speech disappeared, and my brain began to work actively. Another relative was on a visit on time. Together we quickly figured out what to do. The finish was the decision to wait for my son-in-law, because our legs were falling out. It was necessary to make a stronger connection with the clutch.

The legs are still not averse to falling off, but I already like the result.

My daughter thinks that in the open field the supports will be blown away by the wind, onto the tomatoes. Though we will deepen the legs. Then I will write whether it will blow off or not. So far, there are enough impressions.

There was an important nuance. I instinctively put the top together at first, and my support was already ready. And the son-in-law began to collect the bottom of the second support. And when he tried to insert the half-arc into the upper crosspiece, it cracked. Now one support with the top bandaged with tape.

That's why not write a small instruction, it's a penny? And give it to the woman on the phone too. To clarify how we collected, and how it should be.

1. We collect the top.
2. We prepare the rings: we put on 4 crosses for each tube of the future ring
3. We connect each ring with a coupling sleeve (small. a straw)
4. We insert the legs into the crosspieces
5. We insert the free ends of the crown of the cone into the crosses of the upper ring

Not! You have to write a lot of all kinds of advertising words, but Russians don't read instructions! Probably, there was such logic. And that the tubes crack when the sequence is unsuccessful... Okay, let's go! Now, to make a good note, about a successful find.

Covering bags from Fix Price

I bought these bags for the occasion:

They definitely will not protect from frost, thin ones. The Chinese do not write what the density of the nonwoven material looks like - 17.

And for the spring protection of seedlings in the greenhouse from the sun just right.

Here, a cover bag protects a box with seedlings, on the same support made of plastic tubes:

You can adapt simple stakes instead of a support, put cut plastic bottles on top, and such a bag on top.

I liked the bag idea. Can be sewn on, but easier for 55 rubles / piece. buy.

I would be grateful if you could share your emotions in the article :)

And for the like :)
