Step 02: Place the Reflective Ground on the Ground

Spread the ground cover from one end of the orchard along one side of a row of fruit trees to the other. Once you have reached the other end, cut the mulch with scissors.

Step 03: Fix the Reflective Ground Cover firmly

Before assembling Reflective Ground Screens, we recommend laying out all the components to get a good idea of what you have. The accessories required for fixing the reflective ground cover are ground pegs.  So prepare them, and when the ground cover is installed, nail them to the four sides of the ground cover. It is recommended to use one peg for every one meter.

Step 04: Removal and Storage

When your fruits have ripened, you can remove the ground covers and roll them up. Leave it in a dry place and you can reuse them for the next years.

See, it's that easy, the reflective cover is installed and removed in your orchard.

Tips to Install Properly:

Do:

  • Measuring your area where you would like the reflective ground cover installed.
  • The reflective mulch needs to be firmly fixed to the ground during installation to avoid the wind blowing the mulch away or the mulch coming off when people move around.
  • Choose good quality reflective film as it can be used repeatedly and reflects light more evenly and at a more appropriate angle anyway.
  • Choosing the right time to install mulch, at different times will give your fruit trees different effects.

Don't

  •  Don't choose some poor quality mulch as they will break down quickly and won't save you money.
  • Do not choose materials that affect the environment as they can burden the ecosystem.
  • Do not cut them into small pieces when installing them as they may not reflect the light from all sides to the tree.
