Interested to see what happens when they get some snow load. My cat tunnel had issues this summer with wind causing the first hoop to slide/collapse in despite the strapping being wrapped around it. Ended up using a tech screw through the strap into the hoop to stop the slippage.
Sckookum, and simple.
Thanks to you Curtis I am turning beds as we speak for an early spring start. A video on how to harvest properly around low tunnels would be welcome. Thanks for all your help.
A duh moment .
Straps are becoming common place .
Never in a garden context .
can i double like this video?!
Smart!
Hi Curtis
Sorry off subject but how close can you get your paperpot rows. I'm wanting to use it for Baby Spinach.
If you weld a piece of steel plate say 6 x 4 abut 8 to 10 inches down on the re-bar so it is buried well into the ground and face it parallel to the hoops they will be much harder to move but still be easy to pull out.
I'm just starting out with a about 1 acre,I've got a polytunnel and a garden for outdoor cropping….I live in Northern Ireland, I watch your video's all the time…
Why aren't you using P17 floating row cover ? Maybe I already know the answer "because of the risk collapse with snow, wind… If not, would you use it on your farm ?
did you compose the music as well Curtis?
Will the two beds that aren't covered by a low tunnel in the video get mulched or covered by something else and rested over the winter?
how have the low tunnels been holding up with all this wind we've been getting lately?
Do a tour in Australia
I live in north Florida. Would you recommend using insect netting the same way?
Great solution, plus it will be so much cleaner to store when not being used
What a fantastic idea. By the way, your videos are my new go-to reference for my Fall, Winter and Spring gardening. Such amazing content. Congratulations on such great work!
I been watching many videos, some beds have fabric for weeds and some do not, how do you decide?
Excellent!
I will be updating the new low tunnels. I love it. Thank you so much for sharing.
Super
This will be my first year I wish I could afford your course I love watching your videos
You might consider terminating the strapping at the 45 degree hoop, and connecting that 45 degree hoop to the rebar stake with a strong rubber strap or even strong bungee cord (this will maintain a constant pressure on the entire assembly).
Hey mate!
Just wondering what the specs are for your tunnel arches?
Many thanks in advance
Nice jazz music for background.
How to manage temperature inside the tunnel
Hey Curtis, I've been looking for a roll of that strap material. I know you get inundated with questions but if you happen to see this could you tell me where you source the roll from please?
Curtis, you're amazing. One question (that I suspect has an obvious answer) has been burning a hole in my brain: To cover or not to cover? Why cover some crops and not all? I have a small enough space that I could conceivably cover the whole thing as one tunnel/greenhouse – but I wonder if that would be some kind of mistake? Thanks!
