How to Use:

• Measure the area where the Econet 75% Shade Net will be installed — vegetable bed, nursery patch, terrace garden, or polyhouse — and cut the net to the required size using sharp scissors.

• Prepare a support structure using bamboo poles, wooden stakes, GI pipes, or wire frames at a height of 6 to 8 feet above the crop canopy.

• Unfold the green shade net 75% carefully and drape it over the support frame, keeping the weave aligned with the wind direction to reduce flapping.

• Stretch the green shade net 75% just enough to lie flat across the top, without sagging in the middle or pulling tight at the corners.

• Tie the corners and edges of the Econet 75% Shade Net to the support frame using strong nylon rope, jute thread, or net clips spaced 2 to 3 feet apart.

• For wind-prone open areas, anchor the perimeter of the green shade net 75% with U-pegs, sandbags, or bricks every 5 to 6 feet along the edges.

• Inspect the green shade net 75% every few weeks for loose ties, small tears, or fraying edges, and patch any holes with a piece of net and weatherproof tape.

• Fold the Econet 75% Shade Net loosely along the long axis for storage between seasons, and keep it in a dry, shaded place off the bare ground.

Safety Instructions:

• Avoid dragging the green shade net 75% over sharp soil edges, broken bricks, or gravel, as fabric tears can spread fast once started.

• Do not over-tighten the Econet 75% Shade Net during installation, as sudden wind gusts can rip the corners under heavy tension.

• Keep the green shade net 75% away from open flames, welding sparks, and hot exhaust pipes, since HDPE plastic melts and burns easily.

• Use ladders and proper safety gear while installing the green net 75% at heights above 6 feet to avoid falls and injuries.

• Wash the Econet 75% Shade Net with mild soapy water and shade-dry fully before folding for off-season storage to prevent mould and brittleness.

• Keep small children and pets away from loose net edges, as the fine weave can catch fingers, claws, and small items during installation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs):

Q1. Which crops grow best under the green shade net 75%?

The green shade net 75% suits shade-loving and tender crops like coriander, lettuce, spinach, mint, money plant, anthurium, orchids, ferns, ornamentals, ginger, and turmeric. The green net 75% also works well for shade-loving nursery seedlings before field transplant.

Q2. Can the green net 75% be installed on a terrace garden or balcony?

Yes, the green net 75% is widely used over terrace gardens, balconies, and rooftop kitchen gardens. The 75% shade cuts rooftop heat by 8 to 12°C below the canopy, making it much easier to grow vegetables, herbs, and ornamentals through hot summer months.

Q3. How long does the green net 75% last?

The green net 75% gives 3 to 5 years of service in regular outdoor use, thanks to its UV-stabilised virgin HDPE construction. Storing the net under shade between seasons and avoiding sharp pulls extends the working life closer to the 5-year mark.

Q4. How do I clean and store the green net 75% between seasons?

Wash the green net 75% with mild soap and water using a soft brush, rinse well, and dry fully in shade. Once dry, fold the net loosely along the long axis (avoiding sharp creases at the same spot every time), and store it on a wooden plank in a dry, shaded space.
