Defined by Michael Bentine in the 1960s as a crop that is grown and, while young, is covered with a special cover to protect it from the harmful ultra-violet rays of the sun. It is harvested, threshed, thrubbed and washed and then carefully woven into a cover like material that is used to protect the young dingle weed from the harmful ultraviolet rays of the sun.
The dingle weed is woven into the cover that protects the young dingle weed from the sun.
