Tropical Fruit Discussion / Would a netting stop pollinators from reaching plants?
« on: June 20, 2024, 12:05:02 AM »
Hi Everyone,
I covered my potted trees with a bird netting which has half an inch mesh size, to stop critters from destroying the plants and eating the fruits. But, i am just worried that it may also stop the pollinators from pollinating the flowers. Has anyone tried growing trees under netting? Would it be ok to keep the trees under netting at all times? Would it pose any issue? Any insight or feedback is appreciated.
Thank you.
