    Looks good, wish I could afford the rain flo. A guy near me, Cherry Hill Farm, has one. I use one that I made. It works good I may try running some rows next year before laying the plastic to see how that does. I hope you have a great crop next year.

      It's worth the price, but there are a few smaller manufacturers that make them as well. I'm not sure of the prices, but check out Nolt's produce and Buckeye tractor. They may be slightly cheaper.

    How often should the plastic be replaced?

    Great job man!! We run 8 acres of Strawberries..are those 5ft row centers? Do you pre-bed with your plastic layer just without plastic? Is your soil pretty sandy or do you have clay also? Thanks for the post!!

    Hey Dre nice video brother and thank you for the education you're providing us.What band is your mulch you use and is it good for tomato plants?

      It’s the same standard embossed plastic from any ag supply and it works for nearly every crop unless it doesn’t like warmth

    Do you have an issue with the deer walking on your plastic?

    Farmer Dre why you only have one length of hose for a drop of water when you have two rows of strawberries?

    I was wondering how deep you set your cleaning shoes (shoes in front of the firm wheels)? I think mine are getting worn after many years. Hope you get a good sealing rain on the edges and before you plant. Looks good.

    How about doing a video on how the Florida 91 tomatoes did in the strawberry tunnel?

    so, the roots are able to breath enough with the plastic?

      Yes, you aren't depriving anything of O2, just light.

    Where is the drip tape on the machine? Is it a separate roll?

    You should check out Cherry Hill Farm channel, he is putting his plastic down for strawberries now as well. He is fumigating his crops this year and doing an amazing dear fence.
