During a visit to a plastic sheeting plant it was observed that a 45 m long section of a 2 in nominal 6 03 em outer diameter steam pipe extended from one end of the plant to the other with no insulation on it.
During a visit to a plastic sheeting plant.
Don t forget that whatever you choose to cover plants the cover must extend all the way to the ground.
Lay the plastic sheeting over the bed.
For instance you could cover the plant with an old comforter and then a sheet of plastic.
The temperature measurements at several locations revealed that the average temperature of the exposed surfaces of the steam pipe.
If you have perennial plants in the bed cut a hole or an x in the plastic that is just large enough to slip over the plants.
Since frost forms when leaf temperatures dip simply covering the plant isn t going.
Use 1 mm thick plastic to create the highest temperatures and 1 5 to 2 mm thick for windy areas.
Smooth the plastic over the top of the ground so it comes in contact with the soil and doesn t float above it.

During a visit to a plastic sheeting plant it was observed that a 60 m long section of a 2 in nominal 6 03 cm outer diameter steam pipe extended from one end of the plant to the other with no insulation on it.
