Shade Cloth Set-Up Details
Here are the details of the products used to make my shade cloth set-up. It is easy to pull over the structure if the day is going to be full sun, but I can also easily remove the netting on days of less light intensity to maximize the light received by the plant while limiting the unneeded heat.
The rope is smooth, so the plastic on the structure is not damaged and it is also easy to manually pull without the need for gloves. The green stakes are pounded in the ground on an angle and are purposely installed upside down so the wide stabilizing plate is exposed which makes the rope difficult to slip off even during times of wind.
Product Details: Shad Cloth = 30% and 48ft. x 32ft. with brass gourmets along perimeter Rope = 3/8in x 100ft polypropylene with a 244lb working load limit
