FAQs

What Do Cloches Protect Plants From?

Placing a cloche over your seedlings and younger plants helps to provide a protective layer that keeps them safe from early frosts, slugs, and other hungry pests. A cloche is also great at protecting vulnerable plants and soil from heavy rain that can damage soil structure and seedlings.

What Grows Well in a Cloche?

Before you throw a cloche over all your plants, you need to know what will thrive under there. Ferns, orchids, anthuriums, alocasias, and tillandsias all thrive under cloches thanks to the high humidity that can be created.

What is the Difference Between Glass & Plastic Cloches?

It's quite rare to come across glass cloches these days. However, glass cloches can create a much warmer environment inside the dome. This is because the thicker material is better at retaining warmth. Plastic cloches give you more control over the ventilation of the dome with adjustable ventilation holes. This can make it easier to create the perfect environment for your plants and vegetables.

How Do You Secure Garden Cloches?

Generally, individual or bell cloches don't need to be staked to be secure. Ensuring the rim of the bell is pushed into the soil slightly can be enough to keep it in place. If you are using a tunnel cloche with flexible sides, you might need to use binder clips or pegs to prevent the sides from lifting up on the wind.
