What Size of Shade Cloth Should I buy?
You will want the cloth to cover from hip to hip on your hoop house or cover loosely over the desired area that needs protection. Install clips to secure the shade cloth every 24-36". Shade cloth can also be installed using lock channel and spring wire. Check out this video tutorial on how to add shade cloth to a high tunnel greenhouse.

Appreciate all you do!
The shade cloth looks great and will be installing it soon. I’ve already learned a bunch from the videos I watched. You folks are great at sharing your growing knowledge. Thanks and good luck this season.

I use a lot of shade cloth on my farm.
This is the second piece of shade cloth I have bought from Bootstrap. I will continue to buy from them. The quality of the cloth is much better than some of the others I have purchased. Their prices and the speed of their free shipping is also unmatched in my opinion.

Quality was good! Experience with high cost of shipping and long time in delivery was definitely a bummer!
