<strong>Tubex</strong> <strong>Jumpstart</strong><br />
The <strong>Tubex</strong> <strong>Jumpstart</strong> is the best openable vine<br />
shelter on the market, providing both key vine shelter<br />
benefits: Improved growth and Protection. The<br />
shelter is made from a flexible material<br />
(polyethylene) that allows easy access to<br />
the vine for bud rubbing and inspection<br />
without having to remove or lift the shelter.<br />
The twin walled tubular shelter shields the young vine<br />
from herbicides, as well as offering protection from<br />
mechanised weeding and animal browsing.<br />
The <strong>Tubex</strong> <strong>Jumpstart</strong> provides an improved growing environment<br />
resulting in stronger early growth with higher survival rates, a strong<br />
leader shoot and fewer side shoots.<br />
Hints and tips<br />
Use a well-driven quality cane or metal rod inserted through the<br />
<strong>Jumpstart</strong> holes<br />
Can be stapled together for easy installation<br />
One of the best options if speedy plant inspection is required<br />
