Extend Your Growing Seasons with Garden Covers

General Interest Comments Off on Extend Your Growing Seasons with Garden Covers

A simple piece of fabric can be a  game-changer  when it comes to gardening.  You  might  come  across  the  Best Quality Commercial Grade Fabric serving various purposes. In certain weather conditions, your garden needs a thick covering, but there can be conditions when a thin and sheer cloth does the job. If you are into gardening for a long time, you might have at least once heard about garden covers. These crop covers are available in a range of thicknesses that you choose according to the weather requirements.

Thin coverings allow around 70 percent of sunlight to reach plants and give minimal protection to about 28 degrees, whereas thick covering may shade out all but 30 percent of sunlight and provide better protection which is around 24 degrees.

Climate conditions are never stable, and different plants have different climatic requirements. Thus, in order to extend the growing seasons, garden covers or crop covers can be of great assistance. Using frost clothes, tunnels, or fabric cloches can help in creating garden thermostats and extend the growing seasons.

During winter seasons, frost cloth or row covers can buy gardeners extra time for the plants to finish producing. For example, leafy greens grow under frost cloth and can grow up to temperatures dip below 25 °F. Not just in protecting seeds from late-season frosts, you can use row covers to help the soil in warming up faster.

Row covers can not only assist in extending the growing seasons, but row covers can be multifunctional throughout the year. You can rely on row covers time and time again for the following tasks:

following tasks:

  • To exclude insect pests
  • To protect seeds and seedlings
  • To warm up the soil and protect against frost
  • For ongoing winter protection

Now that you know the use cases of row covers, it is time to segregate different row covers according to their types.

  • Insect barriers
  • Lightweight covers
  • Medium weight covers
  • Heavy weight covers

Without a doubt, row cover is one of the best investments, as they can be reused for several seasons if taken care of properly. Floating row covers are a great option you should invest in to ensure that your garden grows in off seasons too.
