For the case of soil going to plants during rainy days and cause diseases, you can also use paper mulching not very expensive. Otherwise thanks for sharing 👍with us, it's nice and cheap compared to plastic green house. Much love from Uganda 🇺🇬
I have just come across this video as i am in the process of deciding whether to use shade net or plastic for my greenhouse. Thanks for the timely advise and great presentation😀😀

Hi Best Farming Tips I just discovered your channel and it's a blessing I did. I say this because I used this material before here in England. My reason for it was only to stop insects, but I realised that there was a slight temperature difference, it was slightly warmer inside. Can I ask you: 1. where in the world you farm. I was planning to build one such greenhouse in Zimbabwe near Bulawayo, now that I know all this wonderful information from you, thank you so much. 2. Would it prevent frost in the winter or I would need extra protection. I can find out for you the winter temperatures in my country, Zimbabwe. But your accent sounds familiar to my part of the world. I feel proud of you though, especially your excellent knowledge of poultry. God bless you.
Hi Vukile, nice to hear from you my friend. I hope you are doing well in England. True, I'm originally from Zimbabwe and I have lived in Bulawayo too before. Yes a shade net greenhouse prevents frost, provided you plant your crops not earlier than 4 months before frost hit your area. For instance, in Zimbabwe frost usually affects crops in July and early August, so plant your tomatoes in your shade net greenhouse after 15 March, so that by the time we get to July and August, they will still be below 2 metres as far as height is concerned. If you are going to grow plants that never reach 2 metres height above the ground, then you can plant them anytime, frost won't affect them. A shade net greenhouse should be 3 metres high, so the further your plants are from the roof of the shade cloth greenhouse the lower the chances of getting affected by frost.
What hardiness zone is the shadecloth greenhouse sufficient to protect from frost? Where is this greenhouse located? Thanks so much, this so so inspiring!!
what if you combine the two? you place the shadenet as the roof and the plastic goes around the structure, will you then get the benefits of both type of houses or the conditions may not be well regulated?
Thank you for sharing. THis is very informative. Let me ask for everyones opinion. My farm is in the southern part of Nigeria. For the past few seasons, end of January we start getting acid/coarse rain that burn crops. Later into the season, the rain most times become excessive and crops wither and crops die. In this example, will poly on the top and shade net on the sides be best? Or what is the best way in your opinion? Thank you for this opportunity.
It's a blessing to have watched your video Sir, because here in the Philippines we're having problems with our newly planted plants due to the seasons being only wet and dry. Right now, we are experiencing rains as we are having la nina phenomenon. May I ask what kind of material is your shade net made of? Is it made of cloth or plastic/nylon? Can't see it clear in the video. Hope to hear from you, Sir. Thanks a lot. May the Creators of Heaven and earth richly bless you.
Hi Elijah, the greenhouse is made of nylon material, which makes it more durable and resistant to weather calamities such as heat wave, hailstorm and wind storm.
Hello boss Thanks very much for the video . I’m from Ghana and I want to ask if it is good to build a shaded net house during the rainy season. And what is the best shaded net to use. Where the round type or the flat type of net?
Thank you very much. I'm wondering if the shade net house would hold up to some of our rain and hail in South Central Texas. It rains buckets of water at times. Also how do you fertilize the plants? One more question, what is the temperature differences between outside and inside during the winter?
It depends with the pests in question. If we are talking about butterflies, grasshoppers and ballworms, then surely a shade net can prevent them from entering the greenhouse. Then if we were talking about tuta absoluta (leaf miners), well thats a different story, even in a plastic greenhouse those ones can still enter and wreck havoc.
Its really an informative video, just the one i was looking for Can you please tell 1. Do hybrid tomatoes withstand heavy rainfall in this nylon net? In summer we have around 45 °c, heavy rainfall, humid conditions. 2. In winter we have around 5° c, Will the nylon provide enough heat inside?
Hi Muhammad, nice to hear from you. Yes tomatoes can withstand the heavy rainfall when they are in a shade cloth greenhouse. In this video there is a part which shows rain showers trickling into the greenhouse, that was actually a heavy rainfall, but it did not destroy or affect plants in the greenhouse. Also, cold weathers don't easily affect plants in the shade cloth. However, just make sure that in the months that your country or town receives frost, your plants should be below 2 metres height, that way they withstand frost.
Yes its okay, others do that, but personally I will not have a hybrid greenhouse that has both shade net and plastic. Probably its because this side our temperatures are always higher than what most countries endure throughout the year.
Where I live, the temperature in summer can rise to 42 degress with high intensity sunlight. Do you think the shaded nethouse can work for me. Thank you
In that case, the shadenet house is the best suitable greenhouse for you because high temperatures require a very well ventilated structure and only a shade cloth can provide that.
Hi Ernest, my apologies for late response, was out of town. The best shade net colour for all horticulture produce is white and 40% is the best as well for horticulture. This is because most plants in the horticulture farming sector, such as tomatoes, cucumbers, cabbages, green vegetables and the like, thrive when exposed to about 60% sunshine. A 40% shade net cloth permits 60% sunshine penetration and blocks 40% sunshine from reaching your plants in the greenhouse.
Hi Yasin. If you live in an area with too much wind, then you better go for a shade cloth greenhouse. A shade cloth greenhouse can not be affected by too much wind. If ever a heavy wind destroys a shade net greenhouse, then a plastic greenhouse would be totally eradicated.
Thanks for the swift reply also I subscribed to your channel. So shade nets do protect plants from strong winds? Also do they keep in moisture, am planning on growing tomatoes which is in high demand it reaches more than a dollar a kilo. Thanks
But there is no point in comparison. Polyhouse is for those Summer plants which the cultivator wants to cultivate in winter season! So they create Summer like condition in winter. And Shade net is for Summer to control heat exactly like a Tree shade.
I get you my friend, but that's okay if one can afford to have both a shade net house and a polyhouse, so that in winter you use a polyhouse and in summer you use a shade net house. Unfortunately very few can afford that. Practically most of us have all year round greenhouses, which are utilized throughout the year. In that case one has to choose whether to go for a polyhouse or a shade net. It is the overall performance and ultimate advantages over disadvantages that make one decide which on to go for, and that's what this video is all about.
@@BestFarmingTips for me , instead of substitution, best thing is to go for budget price of both Because in the end what's matter most is the plant's productivity! And temperature & humidity play the main role. The main purpose of both these is to control that.
@@ngengasya1836 And the video is proving that a shade net house is not as bad as what people think even during winter. I do have a shade net greenhouse and I am speaking from experience. Tomatoes don't do well in winter, but in my shade net greenhouse I grow them all year round without any hassles.
For the tropics you need both material. Plastic to prevent downpours ( heavy rains and storms). Shade net for reduction of ultraviolet radiation from the sun.
Most people just don't know how great a shade net greenhouse is. They are used to the traditional plastic greenhouse. That's the reason why shade cloth greenhouses are very few. Many people who speak ill about shade cloth greenhouses have never worked with a shade net, all they rely on is third hand information and their own perceptions based on the material used to make a shade net.
It's probably because they are used to the plastic greenhouse, so they hardly believe a shade net greenhouse is equally essential, if not better in hot summer.
Thank you very much. I'm inspired to build my first shade house here in Gqeberha. South Africa

Poly underneath the shadenet. Can just place the shadenet on top of the plastic but not around.
What material is the net made of? And where did you buy? Thanks
Thank you for wonderful vedio.
Net shade is also be applicable in philippines.
You used cloth net. If fine mesh net we used is that ok.
Bravo! 👍👍
A very good video for me, it is a game-changer. Thank you so very much.
Are u in Zambia
Great video presentation. Thank you very much
Thank you so much
I'm also like shade nets
This is interesting
Very interesting..do you source the net locally? I don't think this kind of net is available in mt country (Malaysia)
What about ginger ? Is it better to grow in plastic or shade cloth?
The yield for bell peppers in shadenet is same as in greenhouse?
Or should we expect 10% or 20% or 30% less?

Do you have sewing machine for plastic screen house?
Thank you very much. I'm wondering if the shade net house would hold up to some of our rain and hail in South Central Texas. It rains buckets of water at times.
Also how do you fertilize the plants?
One more question, what is the temperature differences between outside and inside during the winter?
Depends on where you located!
Thank you sir.
Which structure is suitable for temperature above 45 deg celcius?
shade net will not stop the pest infestation but in polyhouse the possibility of the same happening is negligible
It depends with the pests in question. If we are talking about butterflies, grasshoppers and ballworms, then surely a shade net can prevent them from entering the greenhouse. Then if we were talking about tuta absoluta (leaf miners), well thats a different story, even in a plastic greenhouse those ones can still enter and wreck havoc.
