Anyone use this type of shade cloth ? If so, is there a drastic temperature drop or so so ? Being reflective ,you would think its cooler than black shade cloth.
Outside the structure!? Doesn't that require some sort of mechanical system to move/remove the cloth?Ray said:I agree with Blake.
No matter which you use, the best thing to do is suspend the cloth above the greenhouse so there is an air space between the two.

If you think about it, shade cloth cuts down on light in two ways, reflection and absorption. The Aluminet does so almost entirely by reflection, and black stuff does so almost exclusively by absorption, converting the light into heat.
