40% 6.5x10ft Sunblock Shade Cloth Cover Mesh UV Resistant Net for Garden Flower Plant Greenhouse, Black

This is a GREAT shade cloth! First, it is well made. There are no frays or loose fibers. Next it has a reinforced edge. Numerous strong threads hold the edges along the length of the shade. I bought a 10' length and that's what it measured when I unpacked it. Third, that reinforced edge I mentioned, it has eyelet (like button holes) about every 2-3" inches. This allowed me to weave some garden string through it and hang it in a supportive way. My garden box has two levels. The lower box is only about 6" inches deep. It's filled with herbs and flowers. The box faces south, so it gets a lot of sun. This summer with continuous daily highs reaching between 105-109 degrees F, it was just too much for the plants! Even watering more often didn't prevent the sun scorching. This shade cloth was a salvation. Because I ordered a 6.5' width, I doubled it up, wove string through the upper end and attached it to the grommets in the shade cloth that runs above the box. Voila! My gerbera daisies in the lower box were no longer droopy or dried out. The herbs looked great! This cloth is a life saver! No smell. Well packaged. I'll buy this brand again!

I ordered this Cool Area Sunblock Shade Cloth Cover Mesh (6.5' x 10') for my aloe plant. I have been fighting with it for a few years since it decided that the sun in the northeast is too strong, even with very limited direct exposure. Ironically, it's a direct descendant of an aloe plant I had that did fine outside in the Texas summer sun (with similarly limited sun exposure). My current aloe burns within a day or so of even the slightest direct sun now. However, it wants to be outside when the temperature is suitable (inside the house, it doesn’t burn but barely grows). I decided to try this mesh cloth, and it has proven to be exactly what my aloe wanted. My only disappointment was that the mesh was not stitched on all 4 sides, only the 2 long sides (the description implied that it was full stitching). I decided to use it folded in half (so only one side has the unsecured edges), draped it over some supports I put on the planter, and added a few clips to hold it in place. I draped it so one side (that never gets direct sunlight) is partially open, to make it easier to water and access the plant. Rain does get through the top just fine (so I really could water it from the top, but I like the access anyway). My aloe has been outside (in mostly full sun) with the cover and THRIVING for over a month (since mid-July). There is no sign of burning or distress, and it’s growing well now. Although I’m a little concerned with how long the unstitched sides will last long term, it seems to be holding well so far, and I consider it a good value and do recommend it.

Worked well, saved my squash plants from hot sun

This sun shade fabric is a 50% block out cover for the garden. It is very lightweight and easy to work with. I actually like it better than the heavier ones I have with grommets. It allows for good air circulation and provides the right amount of light filtration. It will likely last a couple of seasons and the hemmed edges have slits every few inches making it easy to place over fence loops or stakes. It is perfect for my application over tomato plants, cantaloupe, peppers and rhubarb during 100+ degree days. I have ordered 4 so far. Very happy with it.

This is absolutely perfect for what I needed it for on my Florida apartment balcony. Gives my hibiscus and my other plants the shade it needs. It also cuts down on wind.

Good plant protection

Used this to block some sun in the yard and it made a huge difference. Easy to hang, durable, and cuts the heat without making the area feel too dark. Exactly what I needed.

Would have been 4 or 5 stars, except one arrived fused to itself, resulting in several holes. Amazon suggested contacting the seller for service, but the email bounced back. I chatted for a replacement, which arrived not fused, but still with a hole. Getting a credit for that was a hassle and I'm back ordering another and hoping third time's a charm. Again, the product, if they can get one out without holes, seems fine otherwise.

لا يستحق الشراء ولا يستحق ربع المبلغ

Very tough, survived the first boiling hot summer and looks brand new. Fantastic. Used over my 8x8 greenhouse.

The photos are misleading and the 20 feet length can't be achieved. Deeply regret ordering cheap looking net. The positive review with five star rating does not describe this product.

Good carpet but not the best quality of turf. Very plastic like and sounds like it when you walk on it.
