• Light •Air • Warmth
Firstly, the Climate Cover allows light to pass through, which is necessary for many processes within the plant:
• Photosynthesis • Respiration • Transpiration
Photosynthesis requires energy, which is provided in the form of light from the sun or growth lamps.
To put it simply the greater intensity of light, the greater the chance of photosynthesis taking place.
It is essential that the microclimate created beneath a covering system enables air circulation.
An outcome of respiration is carbon dioxide which, when at the wrong levels, effects plant efficiency.

In addition, air circulation regulates the differentials in carbon dioxide, oxygen and water:
• Buffers temperatures • Influences water loss
• Reduces humidity and turf grass disease
Air and ground temperature control the rate of all processes in the plants
growth. Higher temperatures equal the increased rate of grass plant physiology and, in turn, grass plant performance.
Climate Cover passes the test at Lord’s
Michael Hunt, Head Groundsman at Lord’s Cricket Ground has recently installed the system.
“I had good feedback from my colleagues around the county circuit and decided to give the covers a go this season.”
“In the nine day run up prior to the test match between England and the West Indies, the square and pitch were covered more than they were uncovered.”
“Normally, using covers for that period of time we would have had big problems with disease but, with the Climate Cover SystemTM minimal.”
, it was
“Also, to our amazement, the covers promoted growth of recently repaired areas. New grass seed germinated quickly and the covers actually made the grass grow!”
“Now we have used the covers first hand, and tested in a real life situation, I cannot praise the system enough.”
The Climate Cover SystemTM is IRRIGATION
