And then covering this with fleece or plastic in the winter and insect netting in the summer. The one problem seemed to be anchoring the hoops so the cloches didn’t blow away.

Historically, all occurrences of this phenomenon have been loosely, if not mistakenly referred to as cuprosolvency, which literally means dissolution of the copper surface. Classic cuprosolvency typically occurs in water that is relatively soft, low in pH, and high in dissolved gases. It generally is characterized by elevated levels of dissolved copper in the water. However it does not usually result in high levels of particulate copper, or suspended copper corrosion products in the water.
