Developed by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Red Tomato Mulch has been extensively tested to show on average a 20% increase in fruit yield. It does this by reflecting a specific range of light frequencies found in sunlight up into the undersides of your crop's leaves and to the developing fruit. Research shows that some plants respond especially well to certain wavelengths of light - specifically, tomatoes.
All tomato plants need constant moisture, and the ground mulching effect of the film holds the moisture in, reduces water runoff, and discourages weeds. Perforated to allow water and air to reach plants. In addition, Better Reds warms the soil to stimulate early plant growth and continues to improve yield at the end of the season by keeping soil warm on cooler nights. The Tomato Mulch also reduces blight caused by spores in soil splashing onto leaves. Can also be used for strawberries, melons, and other crops that fruit above ground. Garden Staples (sold separate) can be used to help secure the material. Reusable. Contains eight pre-cut 3' x 3' sheets (72 square feet). |
