Ensure the aluminium tubing is correctly assembled and the net clamps are properly positioned. Cable ties can be used to secure the netting further if needed.
Assembly instructions are unclear.
Refer to the included instructions carefully. For visual guidance, consult the 'Hoops and Cages FAQ' on the Gardening Naturally website or the detailed blog post on choosing the right garden cage.
