Now, I add two layers on my greenhouses for two reasons, it retains more heat when I use my heaters at night, and two it reduces the intensity of the light coming through the plastic (I grow seedlings which are very sensitive to bright light). You will have to determine what is best for you. Now the plastic goes on easy, pre-cut it to a 44 foot length (it is already 20 feet wide, leave it this size). Pull the plastic over the PVC all the way down, ensure it is straight on both sides. Now enjoy stapling every couple inches along the bottom where the 2x6 rail is present. I fold the plastic over two or three times to ensure it does not tear. Staple the sidewalls as well. Next thing you know, you have a greenhouse. You can create a door easily by stapling a new piece of plastic over the opening you create and hold the bottom of it down with a left over 2x4. Hope this is detailed enough, send me any questions if you have any! I will attach a lot more pictures now. Picture below is a larger greenhouse not yet completed, missing mulch and weed block (I installed temp shade cloth on this one instead |
