Advice on shade cloth...
I'm in the process of building a shade frame for my trees. The options for shade cloth are more than what I expected. Home Depot sells one which claims to give "75% more shade" (green and light blue are available colors). My local nursery sells black cloth that blocks 50% of UV rays and other which blocks 70%.
As it is now, my trees are getting day-long sun without a break and the summer is approaching fast with temps reaching 80-90 degrees F at midday.
What would be the best purchase?
Thanks in advance.
Jorge
