Questions
Is 85–90% too dark for vegetables?
It suits leafy greens, seedlings and heat waves. Fruiting crops such as tomatoes usually want lighter shade, so use it only in the hottest part of summer.
How do I hold it up?
Tie it through the grommets to garden hoops, stakes, a fence or a greenhouse frame.
