How does greenhouse plastic benefit dispersion of light?

johnpatrick
Greenhouse plastic covers are engineered to enhance the dispersion of light the spreading and even distribution of sunlight throughout a greenhouse environment. Rather than simply letting direct beams pass through, advanced greenhouse films use diffuser technology that scatters light, helping to avoid harsh spots and shadows on plants. This dispersal improves overall light coverage, ensuring lower and inner leaves receive adequate illumination, which in turn promotes steady photosynthesis and healthier growth across the entire crop. Such plastics often combine infrared and anti-drip additives to retain heat and improve light diffusion, creating a more stable and efficient growing environment.
