This quality shade cloth is made from high-density water-permeable polyethylene that resists UV rays as well as garden chemicals, sprays, and even detergent.

    Perfect!

    Fit is great (had to get a bit creative to get over the bolts poking out the top ridge, but nothing too horrible. Did it by myself). Heat went to 35 last week, shade cloth plants were fine, panels that we didn't have the tomatoes were almost done. Lesson learned, temp measures in place and more on order!! Fit is great and I used super strong magnets to attach each ends. Also, put them over my auto windows. Kept it loose and then took up slack when windows were max open now the windows just open and close taking up the slack. Works like a charm.

    Shades save plants

    These were a tremendous help in keeping the plants from baking in the heat since the greenhouse is entirely in direct sunlight all day.

    A necessity

    I only bought one while ordering the greenhouse and needed it right away to lower the temperature in the greenhouse. This shade cloth was sold out when I tried to order more so I had to purchase additional ones from another company otherwise all of my plants would have died in the extreme heat inside the greenhouse. This one is sized for the greenhouse so I would have liked to have had more than one. I placed it inside and affixed it with magnets.
