Re: Solarizing:rain?



I wouldn't worry about the odd day or two of rain.  It has always rained =
about once a week when I solarized.  If it rained more than two days in a =
row, I would extend the time.

Rusty,

I am surprised no one else mentioned this.  Good question! I would think
you would have to "subtract" a rain day from the total.  Leave the
plastic on longer.  Don't remove it.
