Plenty of light coming in from the awning 'windows' doors & roof. You can disbelieve me if you want to
Hang on,
please read my previous post. I dont disbelive you but I am asking how a groundsheet (which must block daylight) allows chlorophyil to be made.
I am no scientist Fysherman ..... but when you have green grass growing through your groundsheet .... that grass is not dead

I had a long conversation about this earlier this month when I went out to unplug the EHU cable to let a warden mow where it was lying. The ajoining pitch had been vacated very early that day by a customer who had been there for over a week and there were livid yellow patches all over it.
The warden told me it happens all the time on grass, and that the spots where jack pads, wheels and water containers have stood recover within a few days. What does not recover however is where the bottom of an inflatable awning has been in contact with the ground. That seems to kill the grass such that it does not spring up anew, but has to grow in again from the sides.
I suggested to him that all vans on grass should be moved every three or four days, but he said it would not make a lot of difference. Sure enough the bit of yellow not covered by the next residents awning had not recovered when we left a week later.

Mayby you are not but I am and and until someone can explain how things work I don't buy it but I would never be so crude to insult you in such a way LR
Perhaps you have now provided a partial answer, the holes are so large in the groundsheet the grass grows through it. I have never seen such a groundsheet. The Aldi one has tiny holes.
