What you need to know:
- 1 x Webbs Thermacrop 2m x 5m
- Approx. weight: 38g per sqm
- How to use: Cover the crop immediately after sowing or planting and secure on all sides. Allow some slack for the crop to grow. Crops should not remain covered for more than six to eight weeks. Potatoes may be covered until the danger of frost has passed. Melons and courgettes can be covered for longer periods as they like a more humid environment. To avoid your plants suffering "shock", remove Thermacrop during mild conditions (avoid bright sunshine and low temperatures)
- Use crop cover clips to secure the Thermacrop without causing any damage
- Remove during flowering if crops depend on pollination by bees
