What are the three main ways of applying PP weed control fabric in greenhouses?
PP weed control fabric can be used to cover the ground, cover the crops and cover the tunnels in greenhouses.
PP (polypropylene) weed control fabric is a popular choice for greenhouse weed control due to its durability, effectiveness, and low maintenance requirements. PP weed control fabric acts as a barrier, preventing weeds from growing and competing with the cultivated plants. It also helps to conserve moisture by reducing evaporation and moderates soil temperature, promoting optimal growing conditions for the plants. Additionally, the fabric can aid in preventing soil erosion and the spread of pests and diseases.
There are three main methods of applying PP weed control fabric in greenhouses: laying the fabric on the soil surface, using the fabric as a mulch, and integrating the fabric into the soil. Each method has its own advantages and disadvantages, depending on the greenhouse layout, the type of crops being grown, and the specific weed control requirements of the operation.
