Our super strong and frost-resistant fleece is perfect for those cold winter nights. We have used this fleece for many years, and it has worked wonders in protecting our plants in the winter.
- Protects against temperatures as low as -10°C.
- Durable enough to last for many years.
- Rain resistant, keeping plants dry.
- Breathable, allowing you to leave it on for days on end during long periods of cold weather.
Directions for use:
Horticultural fleece is a versatile, breathable fabric designed to protect plants from frost, wind, pests, and harsh weather.
When to Use: Apply fleece when temperatures are 5°C and below, and during harsh weather such as hail.
How to Apply:
- Drape Loosely: Cut fleece to size and loosely drape it over plants, allowing some airflow.
- Secure Edges: Use pegs, rocks, or weights to hold the fleece down and prevent it from blowing away.
- Avoid Compression: Ensure the fleece isn’t tightly pressed against plants to prevent breakage and allow air.
Using a Frame:
- For added protection, use hoops or stakes to create a frame under the fleece, creating a mini greenhouse effect around the plants.
Remove During Daytime Warmth:
- Take off the fleece on warmer days to prevent trapped moisture, then reapply in the evening for frost protection.
Storage:
- At the end of winter, wash, dry, and store the fleece in a cool, dry place for future use.
This fleece is heavy duty and is 60 grams per square metre, nearly 4x as thick as other horticultural fleeces.
