Types of agrofiber "Agrotex"

It can be white and black. White is used for sheltering green plants and ensuring their functioning and growth.

Black "Agrotex" is a covering material that depresses growth, so it is used to control weeds.

White agglomerates can be of different thicknesses.

"Agrotex 17" is a very light material. Its density is only 17 g / m ² . Used in the spring for sheltering beds or greenhouses from frost no lower than 2 ˚C. On the beds, the canvas is covered with planted seedlings and the edges are fixed without stretching the film. Seedlings are made higher and stretches the canvas. You can water it without taking cover. After all, "Agrotex" is a covering material that passes moisture well. It is evenly distributed among the plants. When the plants grow, the canvas is released, easing the tension, and again fixed. And this continues until the blow of the spring frost threatens. When using Agrotex in a greenhouse, energy for heating is saved.

As a result of using Agrotex for three or even four weeks earlier, strawberries and tomatoes ripen. You can cover the bushes. Thus, grapes of late varieties will mature before the onset of frost, if it is covered by autumn "Agrotex".

"Agrotex 30", like "Agrotex 42" is used to protect plants from the average frost (6-8 degrees). It is more durable, but also light enough. Can be used for sheltering greenhouses. The principle of operation is the same as that of the brand 17.

"Agrotex 60" has a density of 60 g / m ² . Very durable. Saves from frost at 9 degrees. It can be used all year round for hiding greenhouses, protecting ornamental bushes. It is also quite easy. It is still used with a skeleton, especially for tender young plants. The sharp parts of the frame are covered from contact with the agglomerates, so that it does not rupture. Cover the frame, the edges are fixed so that the wind can not lift them. If the rains continue for a long time, the greenhouse is covered with a film. This must be done so that excess water does not accumulate near the plants. After all, beyond its limits, moisture evaporates faster under the influence of the sun and wind.

If severe frosts are expected, then inside the greenhouse the seedlings are covered with "Agrotex 17".

Black agrovolokno "Agrotex" produce only dense.

Under it the soil warms, the moisture under the plants remains. In addition, it successfully fights weeds, since without the action of sunlight they stop vegetation. Planting the plants, cover the site with black agrarian fibers, cut holes in the form of a cross so that the plant can freely pass through it outward. Cloth laid on the ground. Lightly fix the edges. It's convenient to do with strawberries. If you want to mulch a site with annual plants, it is better to first lay the fiber with holes, and then plant the seedlings in them. This will keep the tender leaves from damage. And the drying and weeds will be protected by Agrotex.

Price

The prices for "Agrotex" fiber depend on the density and area of the canvas. So, 32 m ² brand 60 can be bought for 380 rubles. "Agrotex 42" of the same area has a price of 277 rubles. The roll with dimensions of 1.6 x 200 costs 2332 rubles.

Use in summer

"Agrotex" is a covering material that can not be removed until the time comes to harvest. But this does not apply to plants pollinated by bees and other insects. Fruits of pepper, tomatoes under the canvas are not caked in the sun, because under it a special tropical microclimate is created.

Storage

If agrovolokno has fulfilled its function, it is removed from the beds or greenhouses, shakes the ground from it. After rinsing and drying, fold and hide until the next spring. The storage location should be dark, dry and away from heat sources and habitats of mice. Spring does not wait that long, and then Agrotex will come in handy again.
