Here’s an interesting idea: in theory, a darker sheet should decrease the risk of freeze damage more than a lighter colored one as it’ll absorb more photonic energy. Definitely worth testing at some point.

The test would be pretty simple: get a collection of very sensitive plants and split them into three groups: a control and one each for the different sheets. Then we’d wait until Winter when it’s cold and below the minimum temperature. Next, we leave the control out without a sheet just to many sure they are indeed temperature sensitive and cover the other two groups with their sheets. We simply check them in a few days to see which ones have more damage. And to make sure we killed the control group
