There are various raw materials for landscape fabric (gardening ground cloth), including PP, PE, PET, etc., and each material has its specific color selection. When choosing between white and black, multiple factors need to be considered to ensure that the selected landscape fabric can meet specific usage needs. Firstly, the location of use is a crucial factor. In outdoor areas, such as gardens, open flower beds, or vegetable growing areas, black landscape fabric (gardening ground cloth) is usually the choice. This type of weed control cloth achieves physical weed control by blocking light. In contrast, white landscape fabric (garden cloth) is usually semi transparent, so it is not very suitable for outdoor use. However, in indoor environments, such as vegetable and fruit areas or waterless cultivation areas that require additional lighting, white reflective flooring is more suitable. Secondly, price is also one of the factors to consider when making a choice. The price of weed (garden floor cloth) may vary depending on the raw materials and processes used. For example, the price of ordinary PP landscape fabric is relatively low, while the prices of new PP landscape fabric and PE landscape fabric are moderate, and PET landscape fabric is relatively high. In addition, white landscape fabric has a relatively high price due to its special reflective properties. The service life is also one of the factors to consider when choosing landscape fabric. Anti landscape fabric fabrics made from different raw materials and processes have different service lives. For example, the service life of ordinary PP landscape fabric is about three years, while the service life of new PP landscape fabric, PE landscape fabric, and PET landscape fabric is even longer. The service life of white landscape fabric is relatively long.
1、 The principle of white weed cloth and black weed cloth
The principle of white weed control cloth and black weed control cloth is to prevent the growth of weeds through physical methods. It is made by special techniques and has the characteristic of being impermeable, which can cover the ground and prevent weeds from emerging from the soil. Meanwhile, weed can also inhibit the germination of weed seeds, effectively controlling the growth of weeds.
2、 Comparison of the performance between white weed cloth and black weed cloth
1. Weeding effect
Black weed control cloth has a good weed control effect, which can effectively prevent sunlight exposure, inhibit photosynthesis, and suppress weed growth. Relatively speaking, white weed control cloth has poorer weed control effect.
2. Service life
The service life of black weed cloth is longer than that of white weed cloth, and black weed cloth is generally sun resistant and can be used continuously for 5 to 8 years. The service life of white weed control cloth is relatively short, not afraid of sun exposure, usually only about 1-3 years. Therefore, in terms of service life, black weed cloth has the advantage.
3. Security
Both weed and black weed control cloth are safe, but the following points should be noted during use: first, carefully read the instructions before use; Secondly, it should be used in accordance with regulations and not increased in usage at will; Finally, if any abnormal conditions or side effects are found, the use should be stopped immediately.
3、 Scope of application
Finally, white and black weeds are suitable for various places that need to prevent weed growth, such as farmland, orchards, gardens, etc. White landscape fabric is suitable for some greenhouses, vegetables, and orchards that require reflective coloring. White weed and black weed control cloth each have their own advantages, disadvantages, and applicable ranges. If you need to control the growth of weeds for a long time and use them for a long time, weed is a better choice; If you need to quickly remove weeds and are able to accept weed control cloths with short usage times, black weed control cloths are also a good choice. In short, when choosing weed proof and weeding cloths, it is necessary to choose according to one's actual situation.
