Biofleece - Biodegradable Frost protection Netting for Plants - 30gsm / 2 m x 10 m

Biofleece is made from 100% plant-based PLA (polylactic acid) derived from corn starch, making it fully biodegradable.

The 'gsm' (grams per square meter) indicates the weight and density of the fleece. 18gsm protects down to -1°C, while the heavier 30gsm offers more robust protection down to -5°C.

Biofleece can last up to two years with proper care and can be reused multiple times before it begins to biodegrade.

Biofleece is breathable and water-permeable, so light watering can often occur through it. However, for thorough watering or to allow for pollination by insects, you should temporarily lift or remove the fleece.

Remove the Biofleece permanently in spring when the risk of frost has passed and temperatures are consistently mild. Gradually acclimatize plants to full sun if they have been covered for an extended period.

Biofleece is designed primarily for frost and cold protection. While it offers some insulation, it is not designed to bear the weight of heavy snow, which could damage plants or the fleece itself.

Once it has reached the end of its usable life and has begun to biodegrade, you can leave it in the garden soil to decompose naturally. Alternatively, it can be composted.

Ensure edges are securely anchored with soil, heavy stones, or garden pegs. Consider using a support frame if wind is a persistent issue.

Biofleece is water-permeable; however, if excessive water is pooling, ensure the ground underneath has adequate drainage. You may need to temporarily lift the fleece for watering during very wet periods.

Verify you are using the correct GSM for the expected temperatures. Ensure the fleece was installed correctly and sealed around the base, creating a sufficient air gap.
