Plant Row Covers
Plant row covers are versatile agricultural fabrics designed to cover rows of crops in gardens, farms, and greenhouses.
They act as a physical barrier against harsh weather, pests, and temperature fluctuations while still allowing light, air, and moisture to pass through.
Suitable for a variety of vegetables, fruits, and ornamental plants, row covers enhance growth conditions and extend growing seasons naturally and cost-effectively.

FAQS
1. Can I use plant row covers during heavy rain or snow?
Yes. The covers are breathable and water-permeable, allowing rainwater to pass through without pooling. For snow, heavier GSM is recommended for added durability.
2. Will sunlight still reach my plants?
Yes. Our row covers allow 70%-90% light transmission, depending on fabric weight and color, which is ideal for photosynthesis and healthy plant development.
3. Will the fabric block pollinators like bees?
Yes. Row covers prevent all insects-including beneficial ones-from entering. For pollination, you can remove the cover temporarily or switch to netting with larger mesh.
4. What crops are best suited for row covers?
Ideal for leafy greens (lettuce, spinach), root vegetables (carrots, radishes), cucurbits (melons, cucumbers), strawberries, and nursery seedlings. They're also widely used in organic farming setups.
5. Are these row covers reusable?
Absolutely. With proper handling and storage, most row covers (especially 25gsm and above) can be reused across multiple growing seasons.
6. Can I water crops without removing the cover?
Yes. The fabric is water-permeable, so irrigation can be applied directly over the cover via sprinklers or rainfall without affecting water penetration.
7. Can I cut the cover to fit my field?
Yes. Row covers can be easily cut with scissors or a blade. The material won't fray, but we recommend reinforcing the cut edges for long-term use.
8. How should I store unused row covers?
Keep them in a cool, dry, and shaded place. Avoid direct sunlight or moisture to extend the product's shelf life. Rolls should be kept in original PE packaging if possible.
