    I've planted loads of beech hedgin over the years and i've never had to use any sort of windbraker. I just made sure when i was planting that hedge was well and truly firm in the ground. Unless there very very tall i wouldn't be to concerned

    In very expose dsites some form of support/protection would be advisable. Windbreaker is very good, but pricey, a quicker and more cost effective solution might be to run wire strands on either side of staking and intermittent tying will be more than sufficient.
