UK: Cwmbran vegetable growers install laser beams to protect giant crops
But the green-fingered pair have now installed laser and infra-red alarms in their poly-tunnel and greenhouse to protect from sabotage.
Mr Fortey said: “Vegetable growing is quite a competitive hobby and you hear stories of people chopping vegetables, slashing tunnels and pouring weed killer on plants so we thought we would be prepared.
“The vegetables are valuable to use as we put a lot of effort in and there is a potential for UK and world records so we don’t want to take any chances.”
The seeds that were planted towards the end of last year, are now being transplanted to the greenhouse to be nurtured for competition at the end of the summer.
