At the Missouri State Fruit Experiment Station

Shade Cloth Put on Greenhouse

May 4, 2018 by Jennifer Morganthaler

The field crew placed shade cloth on all 4 greenhouses today.  They start by rolling out the shade cloth, tie ropes to the corners and middle and throw it over the top.  Once ropes are over the cloth is slowly pulled over and positioned.  Then it is tied and secured to the greenhouse.  Shade cloth helps reduce the temperature inside the greenhouse.
