Permeable to air and water, it ensures an optimal environment for healthy, abundant harvests.

• Climate Shield: Defends against scorching sun, wind, and light frost.
• Ideal for Growth: Allows good air and water circulation.
• Durable: Designed for multiple seasons of use.

Ideal Uses

• Protecting vegetable rows (carrots, cabbage, onions, leafy greens).
• Protecting small fruits (blueberries, raspberries) from insects and birds.
• Covering seedlings and young plants for early season protection.
• Creating temporary mini-tunnels or row covers.

Installation Tips

1. Prepare your bed: Ensure your plants are free of pests before covering.
2. Support Structure: For best results, use hoops or stakes to create a frame over your plants. This prevents the netting from resting directly on the foliage and allows for better air circulation.
3. Secure Edges: Bury the edges of the netting in the soil or weigh them down with rocks or soil staples to prevent pests from crawling underneath.
4. Allow Room for Growth: Ensure there is enough slack for plants to grow without pushing against the netting.
5. Remove for Pollination: For crops requiring insect pollination (e.g., squash, cucumbers, strawberries), remove the netting during flowering time.

General Care and Storage

Rinse the netting with water to clean off dirt and debris at the end of the season. Ensure it's completely dry before folding and storing it in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight to prolong its lifespan.
