Tips for using shade netting to protect your plants

Shade netting is an incredibly useful tool for gardeners to protect their plants from harmful elements like blazing summer sun or harsh winter winds.

Studying

Shade nets come in various colors, but black and green shade netting provide the best protection from the sun's rays or wind. As such, it's important to study how shade netting works and what shade netting is best for your plants.

Choosing

Make sure you choose a shade cloth to help reflect light away without blocking any much-needed air circulation for your plants – this might mean using a lighter sunscreen net in the summer months.

Installing

When installing your shade netting, ensure it's evenly distributed over the area you're trying to protect and firmly attached to poles, so no gaps are left open that exposed plants to enhanced sunlight or wind exposure.

Checking

Regularly check on the shade net you've laid down, as its fabric can degrade over time, leaving your plant exposed!

Following these easy tips will help ensure that your shade net offers adequate protection for all of your agriculture vegetables – no matter if you choose black or green shade nets!
