Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What does 50% light deprivation mean?
A: It means the cloth blocks about half of the light that would otherwise reach the plants below. The rest passes through the fabric.

Q: Does shade cloth help with heat?
A: Reducing direct light lowers the solar load on plants and the structure. The open knit also allows air movement, which helps heat escape.

Q: Can I cut it to size?
A: Knitted shade fabrics can generally be trimmed to fit. Seal or hem cut edges to limit fraying.

Q: How do I install it?
A: Stretch it over a frame or greenhouse structure and secure it with clips, ties or grommets suited to your setup. Keep it taut so wind does not cause wear.

Q: Is this a single piece?
A: Yes. It is sold each as one 20 ft x 48 ft cover.
