Fruit cage / overview

So the black currants have set and we are starting to get strawberries coming. Since we want to eat the fruit (in preference to the pigeons and magpies) have to net the fruit - for the black currants used 6 foot canes and pop cans / string, for the strawberries the multipurpose blue pipe:

Clearly still early in the season so a lot of bare soil to keep weed free, but should fill very quickly if we keep on with the warm weather with rain showers!
