Understanding Greenhouse Plastic Properties

LIGHT TRANSMITTANCE

Our 6 mil greenhouse film is designed with a light transmittance 89%.  This means 89% of light passes into your greenhouse through the plastic sheeting. High light transmission is essential to allow your plants to thrive.

GREENHOUSE SHEETING LIGHT DIFFUSION

The greenhouse film's diffusion allows light to be scattered around your hoop house and helps your plants get even lighting in all areas inside your structure.  Diffused light is particularly important for tall or self-shading plants that typically would get uneven light exposure in direct sunlight. This enables you to have fuller and more even growth in your greenhouse.

BENEFITS OF PLASTIC GREENHOUSE AND HOOP HOUSE COVERINGS

Direct light from the sun is not ideal for most plants.  Direct light means that no particles in the atmosphere or coverings are dispersing sunlight,  which can lead to scorch, uneven heating, and shadowing of nearby plants.  On a cloudy or overcast day, you will notice a lack of shadows because the light is being dispersed in many different directions.  Clear greenhouse plastic acts similarly to the clouds to diffuse the light but still allows 89% of the light through.  The plastic polyethylene film converts the direct sunlight into a more evenly distributed and dispersed light in your hoop house.  This allows the light to penetrate deeper into your plants, which improves your yields.  

Greenhouse plastic sheeting helps with light dispersion and creates a more uniform temperature inside your hoop house.  Direct sunlight causes hot spots on your plants, just like if you were standing outside in the direct sunlight on a hot sunny day.  Once the sun goes behind a cloud, you feel much cooler.  Your plants feel the same way.  Areas that are getting direct sunlight can be subject to sun scorch while the plants' shaded parts are nice and cool.  This can cause die-off and stress on parts of your plants that are overexposed to direct sunlight.  Light dispersion creates a more consistent temperature for your plants, enabling more uniform growth.

WHAT TO AVOID WHEN BUYING GREENHOUSE PLASTIC

When buying greenhouse plastic, be sure not to get it from a local hardware store such as Home Depot or Lowes. Yes, they sell cheap 6 mil plastic film, but it is not UV stabilized.  You will be lucky to get 4 months of use out of their plastic before it disintegrates, and you will have a mess of torn and brittle plastic to clean up.  Any greenhouse plastic you buy wants to make sure that it is UV stabilized.

Bootstrap Farmer's 6 mil clear greenhouse plastic has 89% light transmittance to bring plenty of diffused light into your structure for healthier and happier plants.

    Not bulky fit
    Size: Large, Color: (009) Gray Dawn / White / Prime Pink
    Thinner than UA other cushioning run socks, but this fit is perfect and doesn't shift in my shoe. I wear a women's 9.5 and determined Large doesn't squeeze my foot like Medium size (too exact). Bonus... avaliable olors beyond black and Grey.

    Love these socks!
    The wife struggles with socks. She only like the Nike ones, then they discontinued them, so had to start the search again! Found these, they are expensive just like the Nike, but the size is true, they look great, they are super soft and stretchy. They are light weight and breathable and seem to wick away moisture. She loves these!

    Great room divider
    Color: Black, Size: 4 Panel-88'', Color: Black, Size: 4 Panel-88''
    This is a room divider and would work great as one! I’m using it as a cover for my car port/garage so you can’t look in and see my messy garage as easily and for what I’m using it for it’s a little not quite as sturdy as I need it to but I’m sure it’s not meant to be used outside anyways so I don’t fault the product since I’m not using it as intended… with that said though…. It still covers my garage beautifully and really does exactly what a I need it to! I’m sure the wind may blow it over if it gets too crazy but I don’t see it breaking by any means. The frame is metal and drilled together using long screws. It’s very well built. The cloth for the panels is this waterproof type material that’s kind of like the gazebo roof feeling. So it’s easy to clean and it’s easy to wipe. You can put it straight or bend the panels and either way it still stands up. You don’t HAVE to bend it to make it stand or anything. You can literally use it straight across like I am in the pictures. Overall very happy with this product and it’s also very tall so it truly covers a lot (hides a lot lol). I’m 5’8 so you can see it’s taller than me by the pic I took

    OK. Drag to setup. Needs more stable feet
    Color: Black, Size: 4 Panel-88''
    I was glad to find these. The benefits of having them in a recording setup is helping suppressing noise for a vocal booth. It's a layer that surrounds the recording box. Nice! (But away from audio hardware or DAW). Here is the not so nice part: The feet! It's able to stand (as it needs to do this). But it cannot be bumped. If it does, it's coming down onto something. I believe the feet units are not wide enough (or long enough). That makes for an easier tumble risk. So far, they haven't, but it's like being in the woods over leaves - it feels dangerous with every step! (That's actually true). They are tall enough, wide enough, material OK. But the feet for the main assembly do not seem sturdy enough. There are ways to help that. I'm thinking a 2x4 to augment the base. Make them wider. It can be done. It was a drag to set these up, and I'm sure to modify them like i'd want them. But, they do come in at a much lower price that other similar dividers. Consider all this because I've seen more solid dividers ( with padding) that would basically be the 1/2 cost of these. But i'd think they'd be easier to assemble, stand sturdier, and without that feeling of an impending fall (or fail). This is my opinion. I hope it helps.
