Colours
The white option is popular for vegetable gardens as it is rated 27-30% UV block and its light colour doesn’t affect the growth habits of plants. This, along with its robust constructions means that it provides great protection from frost and wind while allowing enough sun for fruits and particularly red vegetables to ripen.
