E1324 Stabilized film for solarization – Transparent fumigation film

The plastic sheets allow the sun’s radiant energy to be trapped in the soil and heating the soil. Solarization during the hot summer months can increase soil temperature to levels that kill many diseases and weed seed. Soil solarization also improves soil structure and increases the availability of nitrogen (N) and other essential plant nutrients.

Solarization is a simple, safe, and effective method that has been used with field, vegetable, and flower crops. It can be combined with organic soil amendments or reduced rates of pesticide application for greater effectiveness. The plastic sheets should be left in place for 4 to 8 weeks to allow the soil to heat to the greatest depth possible.
