I am thinking about using it in green house on heated sand bed.

Worthwhile?

Any comments - experiences please?


Yes, we use it everywhere on the nursery, but to be effective you need a
layer of polythene under and another layer of micro perforated polythene
over, the former aids water distribution the latter helps prevent root
penetration.
