What is Frost Cloth?
Frost cloth is a spun-bonded polyethylene fabric with a tissue like appearance. It is UV stabilized to ensure durability of fabric during the growing season. As a crop cover, it promotes natural, undisturbed growth, and creates a microclimate under which seedlings thrive. This fabric will allow rain to penetrate and 90% light transmission (18gsm cloth) — down to 70% for the 60gsm cloth. It will mitigate the effects of frost and regulate the growing temperature, creating overall improved growing conditions.
The cloth can be used in a variety of ways:
- Throw Lightly over plants (rows, trellis, garden beds, tress)
