Polythene for Plant Protection in the Garden - 1.8m - 1m

This 150-gauge polythene is designed for cloches and small frames rather than large, permanent greenhouse structures.

No, the clear material is designed specifically for horticulture to allow maximum light transmission while providing weather protection.

You can use a staple gun with a plastic buffer strip or simple wooden battens screwed over the polythene to prevent tearing.

While it is made for garden use, extended direct sunlight will eventually degrade any plastic; proper off-season storage will significantly extend its life.

Yes, use a soft cloth with mild soapy water to remove dirt or algae, then ensure it is bone-dry before storing.

Increase the tension by tightening the anchor points or adjust the height of the central support hoops.

Use heavy-duty garden staples or bury the edges of the polythene at least 15cm into the soil to create a wind-resistant seal.

Ensure adequate ventilation by propping up the sides during warm days or adding small vent holes if necessary.
