Pre-cut 30 micron black mulch film, 1.40 x 10 m (33ft)

This long black mulch film, particularly suitable for strawberry cultivation, provides better yield and high-quality harvest: it prevents the growth of weeds, retains moisture in the soil, and keeps the fruits clean by isolating them from the ground. Its use also reduces the need for chemical products. We offer it in a roll measuring 1.40 m (5ft) wide by 10 m (33ft) long.

This plastic film is made of polyethene with a thickness of 40 microns, slightly higher than the standard quality. It is installed before planting on well-weeded and prepared soil. It is easy to cut with a cutter, allowing for openings to be made to install the young strawberry plants. It is essential to securely fix the film to the ground so the wind cannot pass underneath and lift it. Being black, it absorbs the heat from the sun, allowing the soil to warm up more quickly and the plants to root faster. The heat emitted by the film also accelerates the ripening of the fruits and enhances their sugar and aroma content. Protected by the mulch, the soil dries out much more slowly, reducing the need for watering and significantly decreasing water consumption. The impermeable mulch film prevents the growth of weeds by depriving the naturally present seeds in the soil of light, saving time and eliminating the need for chemical herbicides. The strawberries will rest on the film instead of the soil, thus being protected from soil splashes and less exposed to slugs' appetite. You can install a drip irrigation system to irrigate your strawberry bed. This material has a lifespan of approximately two years.
