FAQs

Dupont AG-06 UV Pointbonded Polyester is a general use, lightweight floating row cover. It is made of white, ultraviolet (UV) resistant spun-bonded polyester that transmits approximately 70% light, which is adequate for crop growth. Because it is very lightweight (0.6 oz/ sq. yd. or 20 g/sq. m), it is most often used as a floating row cover - that is, it gently floats on top of the crops as they emerge and grow.

Soft and non-abrasive, it will not damage crops. Supporting hoops are generally not needed. Although Dupont AG-06 is light in weight, it is durable enough for multiple uses in one season or for several years when handled with care.

Crops Suited to AG-06
Vegetables	All direct seeded crops and transplanted vine crops. Do not cover transplanted pepper and tomatoes unless hoops are used to prevent damage during windy conditions.
Small Fruits	Cover strawberries in late Fall or early Spring
Cut Flowers	Hoops might be required where wind is a problem

Installation Tips for AG-06
Apply when there is minimum wind.
Use wider covers for greater application efficiency.
Do not try to stretch the cover. Allow it to drape over the crop.
Secure the edges with soil, stones, sandbags, et cetera. To keep out insects, cover the edges with a continuous furrow of soil.
Handle with care to prevent tearing.
Timing of planting, covering, and cover removal:
Generally, crops may be planted about 10 days earlier than normal when covers are applied at planting.
The covers will remain on warm-season crops for about 3 weeks until pollination is needed or until the crop out-grows the space under the cover.
For many direct-seeded crops, leave the cover on until harvest.
