Grow It Heavy Duty Thick Fleece - 1 x Fleece

GSM stands for grams per square meter, which is a measure of fabric weight. A 38gsm density indicates a relatively thick and durable fleece, suitable for heavy-duty protection.

Yes, this fleece is suitable for protecting vegetables, especially against early or late frosts, and can help extend their growing season.

With proper care and storage, the fleece can last for several seasons, protecting your plants year after year.

The fleece is designed to be porous, allowing air and some moisture through. It is not intended to be waterproof but rather to offer insulation and protection from wind and frost.

Simply lay the cut piece of fleece over the plant, then fold the edges back onto themselves to create a thicker, double layer of material before securing the edges to the ground.

While it offers some ground cover, its primary purpose is frost and wind protection. It is not designed as a heavy-duty weed membrane.

Use hoops or a frame to support the fleece, keeping it from direct contact with the plant's stems and leaves.

Ensure the edges are securely anchored using garden pegs, heavy stones, or by burying the edges slightly in the soil. Consider using additional weights along the perimeter.

Ensure the fleece is not applied too tightly, allowing for some air circulation. Remove the fleece during warmer, sunny days to ventilate plants, especially during transitional periods.

Use a sharp pair of fabric scissors or a sharp craft knife on a cutting mat for a clean cut. Avoid using dull blades which can snag and tear the material.
