Plantra 7-inch Diameter Rigid Mesh Tube Protector Roll Stock

Designed for use with the following plant types:

Narrower form evergreen trees (i.e. white pine and cedar)
Deciduous (broad leaf) trees

Tired of deer and rabbits killing your prized white pine, white cedar and other conifer seedlings? Plantra Rigid Mesh Tube Protectors make guarding these evergreen and all deciduous trees fast, easy and affordable. Say good-bye to chicken-wire and other metal cages that are both expensive to make and even more expensive to buy. Say hello to fast, safe seedling protection that goes on easy and lasts until your trees are well on their way.

Plantra's rugged, tight grid mesh design reduces lateral branching through side of tube and is best suited for narrower form conifer (evergreen) trees like white pine and white cedar and any deciduous (broad leaf) trees. 328ft roll is easily cut to your desired heights. Shorter lengths can be used for small form shrubs and longer lengths (5ft and longer) can be cut for deer browse protection.

Step 1 Plant Seedling
Plantra Rigid Mesh Tubes can be used with either evergreen or deciduous tree and shrub seedlings. Choose a location that will receive 6-8 hours of full sun, remove weeds from the planting spot and as the old adage goes.....if you have a 5-dollar tree, dig a 10-dollar hole!

Step 2 Measure & Cut Rigid Mesh To Desired Length
Sturdy scissor and tape measure required. (See figure 1)
NOTE: If 5ft pre-cuts were purchased skip to Step 3.

Step 3 Drive Support Stake(s)

NOTE: All Plantra Rigid Mesh Tubes require at least one support stake and the 12in and 18in diameter tubes should have 2 stakes. Choose the right companion stake for the job before heading to the field (see companion stake options to right).

For Wild Land Plantings where your rigid mesh tubes need to remain on trees and shrubs for at least 4-5 or more years. We strongly recommend our SunFlex Stakes to get the job done.

For Garden Plantings and other applications where stakes are intended to only last a season or two, SunFlex stakes are still the preferred choice though other materials may be used.

3A. Position stake 1/2 the distance of the tube diameter from the seedling. Doing so will keep the seedling in the center of the rigid mesh tube after its installed. For an 8in tube this distance would be 4in, for the 12in tube the distance would be 6in and so on. (See figure 2)

3B. Drive the stake to the required depth. If using SunFlex stakes the ground line marker is clearly identified on one end of the stake.

3C. If using 12in or 18in rigid mesh tubes drive a 2nd stake directly opposite the 1st stake about the same distance from the seedling so that the tube diameter can accommodate both stakes inside. (See figure 3)

3D. Drive the stake to the required depth. If using SunFlex stakes the ground line marker is shown on one end of stake. When finished, top of stake should be at a height at or slightly below the top of the mesh tube.

TIP: One or two sod anchor staples can be used to help pin the base of the tube firmly to the soil to reduce entry by critters. Position staples away from stakes for maximum anchor support. (See figure 4)

Step 4 Install Rigid Mesh Tube

4A. Pop tube open by flattening it in the opposite direction than how it was packed. To keep the open shape t's often helpful to fold a light crease into the new edges by pinching them along their length between your thumb and fingers.

4B. With the tube completely open, raise it up and over the stake and slide it down to the ground keeping both the seedling and the stake entirely inside. (See figure 5)

4C. Align the reinforced "grip-strip" with the stake and starting at ground level, attach ties every 2.5ft of tube height to secure to stake. (See figure 6)

HINT: When using Plantra Twist-Lock Rubber-Coated Twist Ties, bend 3-4 inches of one end into a hook as shown in figure 7. Starting from outside the tube, hook the looped end through the mesh on one side of the stake, around the stake and back out the other side as shown. Cross and pull the tie ends so the stake is snug to the tube and twist 3 times secure. Repeat for remaining ties.
