Common questions about the stock and about ordering from Mangone's Garden Center. If yours is not here, email [email protected].
What are the benefits of using a raised garden bed liner?
Raised garden bed liners help protect wooden beds from moisture and soil degradation, extending their lifespan. They also prevent soil erosion and keep soil contained within the bed, maintaining a neat growing area.
How do automatic greenhouse vent openers work?
Automatic vent openers use a hydraulic cylinder filled with a wax blend that expands and contracts with temperature changes. This natural process pushes and pulls the vent open or closed, regulating the greenhouse's internal temperature without electricity.
What are soil block makers used for?
Soil block makers create compressed blocks of growing medium, eliminating the need for plastic pots when starting seeds. This method promotes stronger root development and reduces transplant shock, as seedlings can be planted directly into the garden in their block.
Can weed barrier fabric be used in raised beds?
Yes, weed barrier fabric is effective for suppressing weeds and maintaining soil moisture in raised beds. It creates a protective layer that allows water and nutrients to pass through while preventing unwanted plant growth from below.
What kind of clips are best for securing greenhouse coverings?
Greenhouse clips and clamps are designed to firmly attach poly sheeting, shade cloths, or insect netting to your greenhouse frame. They provide a secure hold that withstands wind and other weather elements, ensuring your coverings stay in place.
