joz- many yrs ago when i lived in waynesboro, ga, i had some window screening [ fiberglass window screening i bought in a roll] sewn in tube shaped forms [sew the 2 opposing sides together] you can make them as long and short as you like. then when you decide on the lengths, just sew the top closed. i slipped these down over my tomato cages [ crw] and had the most blemish free, pest deprived plants and beautiful tomatoes you ever wanted to see. that was many yrs ago and i haven't done this again probably cause i move too much. they worked like a champ. no, there wasn't any shade problems and yes, there are a lot of pests in georgia! i plan on doing this again when i retire.
