Lift n Clip Training Wire

Say goodbye to the hassle of bamboo and string! The Lift n Clip (LnC) is Hortivate’s latest innovation, revolutionizing how growers train new plants and grafts onto plant support wires. Designed for efficiency, the LnC saves both time and money, streamlining the process while ensuring strong, well-supported growth.

How it works:

  • Simply place the LnC on the trellis wires and guide your tree along the wire.
  • Secure the tree at junctions where the LnC meets the trellis wire with our pre-cut tying tube or Max Tapener.
  • As the tree grows, effortlessly “Lift and Clip” it onto the next set of support wires.

No more bamboo or string—just a quick, effective system that grows with your orchard.
