Covering the edges of film covers with soil is a basic agrotechnical practice that ensures reliable material fixation and the creation of an airtight environment for plant protection. Understanding the principles of installation and the methods for securing protective sheeting is critical for any agronomist or gardener, as it allows for minimizing the impact of adverse weather conditions, protecting transplants from spring frosts, and forming a favorable microclimate for the active growth of crops during the early period.
This selection gathers materials covering the entire spectrum of working with film structures: from creating the simplest individual covers and frameless systems to designing full-scale hotbeds and greenhouses. Readers will find practical recommendations on selecting materials, specific features of assembling frame and amateur structures, as well as advice on the effective operation of tunnels. The articles contain information on setting up warm pits, using "double film" technology, and the rules for maintaining covers, which will help optimize the process of vegetable cultivation and increase the overall productivity of the plot.
