How to use a tarp for gardening?

Tarpaulins offer a cost-effective way to protect against frost, help protect soil and control weeds, and have all of the following advantages as well:

  • Water and UV resistance to aid in the protection of plants and flowerbeds.
  • They can be used to gather and collect fruits and vegetables, making the gathering process easier and more organised.
  • Tarpaulins are easy to clean and can be reused year after year, reducing waste.
  • As well as being lightweight and portable they are also very durable (with higher GSM ratings of tarpaulin generally being sturdier) which can help with usability, especially in harsh weather or climates.
  • At Tarpaulins Direct we not only stock over half a dozen different tarpaulin types but provide them in different colours and sizes as well, for the convenience of our customers.

Soil can be protected and kept warm pre – planting by tarps, and tarpaulins are also very good at covering compost piles and protecting plants that may be a little more delicate from harsh weather conditions such as frost. Weeds can be supressed naturally without needing to resort to chemicals by placing a tarp over the garden bed in question. Tarpaulins are additionally very handy for collecting various types of garden waste.

What type of tarpaulin is best for gardening tasks?

For gardening there are several considerations when choosing the right tarp. UV – resistant tarpaulins for example are important for long – term outdoor use, as plants may otherwise be unshielded from strong sunlight. More heavy – duty, waterproof tarpaulins are very well suited to protecting both soil and plants from higher than average levels of rainfall and moisture.
