FAQs

How do I measure my plants for the covers?

Measure the height and width of your plant. Ensure it fits within the 110cm height and 90cm width dimensions of the cover.

Can I use these covers on my vegetables?

Yes, these covers can be used on many types of vegetables that are frost-sensitive, such as tomatoes and peppers.

How do I store the covers during the summer?

Clean the covers, let them dry completely, and store them in a cool, dry place.

How often should I check the plants?

Check the plants every few days. The covers need to be removed during the day if the temperatures rise.

What if my plant is too tall for the cover?

These covers are best suited for smaller plants. For taller plants, consider using multiple covers or another method of protection.

Can the covers be used in the rain?

Yes, the covers offer some protection from rain, but it's important to ensure adequate drainage.

Troubleshooting

Cover is not staying in place.

Ensure the drawstring is properly tightened and that the cover is not too large for the plant.

Plant is still damaged after using the cover.

Check if the frost was severe. Consider using additional protection or removing the cover during the day.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Unpack the covers and ensure they are clean and free of debris. Place the cover over the plant, ensuring the entire plant is covered.
Securing: Tighten the drawstring at the base of the plant. Adjust the cover to ensure it is snug but not constricting the plant.
Compatibility: Suitable for a wide range of plants but best for shrubs, small trees, and potted plants that are vulnerable to frost.
Care: Regularly check the covers to ensure they are properly secured and undamaged. Remove the covers during the day when the temperature rises to allow for proper air circulation. Clean the covers with a damp cloth if necessary, and store them in a dry place when not in use.
