I'm back to this thread.

Today I prepared the two nets and hoisted them in place, below the other. It was a lot of work. It looks neater this time round. I was happy things went on. Lot of hemming the edge of the green net to put in a nylon thread for strength was what took lots of time.

First I placed the blue net which is actually a net used for practice grounds in the game of cricket to stop balls going everywhere to save time. This is to catch the "bombs" that drop from the Aegle marmelos tree above it - see next pic. Then the green net which has a very close weave was put below it to catch leaves that goes through the first two-inch wide-holed netting. It can also catch finer materials like flower parts of that tree that fall in plenty in the season.
