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.

Extra Strength Shade screens being used in SC
been using the white shade screens for several years now & love the protection they give our garden. Most recently use the product of a green house that's original plastic cover had ripped apart. Did a partial top, side covers then screened over the entire thing. Zipped tied the front and back to the top screen cut in an entrance at the front & new structure.

50% white shade cloth
My review of your product is excellent. In the Okanagan valley of British Columbia, we have very intense hot sunny days with temps into the high 30s- low 40s C (which is high 90s- to mid 100s F). But the highest was 45 C or 113 F in 2022! Maybe ok for wine grapes but too hot and sunny for blueberries raspberries and black berries. Last year I ordered 50% white shade cloth but even that allowed...

Sun Shade had made a difference
I had no idea how to hang the shade cloth over and existing garden with plants 6 feet tall. The whole installation experience was surprisingly easy. The cloth clips work really well. The clip can handle a lot of pressure, being pulled in one direction or the other. The affect of the shade cloth was immediate and noticeable. I do plan to purchase much more of this product.

So far so good!
In the last two weeks of installing this shade cloth over our garden, we've had crazy storms with high wind & no signs of wear! So glad we went with Bootstrap Farmer!
