i saw chicken wire used for something unknown to me on top of old 1800s greenhouses in France. it was not used for hail because it was resting directly on top of glass. i do not know what it was there for. but hail and flying debris i got past few years is so big and so frequent that im not sure chicken wire will do the job. a lot of gardeners use shading cloth for lowering sun light intensity. but that is not always enough to withstand hail. A lot of times there is multiple pieces of hail stuck in one hole. some just bounce off. i have PV on roof and not had issue with that. but i had few broken glass pieces of greenhouse glass. even tho it is on same property. it is glass-glass bifacial, i did not do it for back light but for longevity, i saw too many plastic backing tear off, or delaminated or how to call it. so i did not want that. and im not sure if that is also factor in not having broken PV. doing it on huge PV areas should atleast be by my feeling too much of hassle, investment. But some people mentioned in other comments small arrays of, if i remember correctly, 5kWp. so that is roughly area im doing it on. so in those small arrays it can be done manually. https://99percentinvisible.org/article/fruit-walls-before-greenhouses-walled-gardens-created-urban-micro-climates/ https://99percentinvisible.org/article/fruit-walls-before-gr... https://www.atlasobscura.com/adventures/trips/peru-machu-picchu https://www.atlasobscura.com/adventures/trips/peru-machu-pic...
