FAQ
How effective are frost cloths?
Frost cloths can protect your plants when temperatures dip into the 20s (°F). They work by using the heat that was trapped by the soil during the day to keep your plants warm. The thicker the fabric, the more heat that the fabric will trap and the more it will protect against the cold, but the less light will be let through. If you are planning to keep your frost covers on all day, opt for a thinner fabric.
Can you leave a frost cloth on all day?
You should not leave a frost cloth on your plants all day. Take the frost cloth off your plants in the morning and/or once temperatures rise above freezing, then put them back over your plants before sunset. The reason you'll want to do this is to allow the ground to capture heat during the day, which will then help to keep your plants warm at night after the frost cover is placed over them. Leaving your plants uncovered when it's warmer will also allow your plants to capture as much sunlight as possible.
Can rain get through frost cloths?
Yes, frost cloths are permeable which allows water to go through the cloth.
Do frost cloths let sun through?
Yes, but the thickness of the frost cloth will depend on how much sunlight gets through the cloth. The right thickness of a frost cloth will depend on the weather conditions. For colder and windier weather conditions a thicker frost is better to trap more heat and prevent it from tearing.
