I love this! I had raised beds but didn't make a cold frame out of them. One thing I disliked with the raised beds is they dry out quickly so i put an irrigation drip system in them. Now I am old and can't do all this stuff any longer but still like to see what you youngins are doing.

Very useful video. I live in in a rural area south of Ottawa, Canada and this summer it has been very wet and cool. Thank you for your generosity in sharing your ideas. Definitely will look at building something similar for our peppers and tomatoes. We currently use brackets to hold the PVC in place, your ideas make for a much more robust bed. How it the bed holding up?

I am new to gardening, and this looks like something that I would very much enjoy making. I live here in Kitamaat BC Canada, and the weather often leaves something to be desired. I have a few veggies and a few berry bushes on the go, but they are just starting their career so won't produce for a couple of years or so. I'm experimenting with seaweed compost--pretty powerful stuff! I hope to get some potato plants going here pretty quick. Thank you very much for your great video. Last year I made A-frame roof trusses to serve the same purpose as your hoops. I will now use both on different sections of my little 'farm', and compare them.

Love your hinged hoophouse. It makes me want to build one for early spring & late fall growing, and for tender crops like lettuces in Arkansas, USA. And good luck with your peppers. Something you could do to help stabilize the PVC: drill where the hoops and the horizontal support meet and run your zip tie through the holes. It will take a little bit longer but it will keep the PVC from sliding along the support.

I think this is very well done. The only thing I would add is a latch to secure the hoop frame to the raised bed. The winds where I am are strong and they could potentially lift the lid high enough to flip it off of the bed. Wouldn't have to be anything fancy, a simple hook and eye would do it. Excellent job!

= @@ChristopherBrandsdal = I like your design.. . If someone was doing it again, I would suggest at point 9:30 to put the hinges at least 6 inches from the end of the board,, to reduce the chances of any spit in the wood at the end, caused by the stress of the screws being so close to the end.... Being as it is 3 years later, please take a close look and tell me if there has been any hint of crack stress at that point....Thankyou for posting... - One more recommendation that I never see people doing, but I recommend to staple bare wires about 1/4 inch apart, , around the outside of the top board of the raised bed, and attach to a battery or step down transformer from ac voltage.... This will keep slugs and other night crawlers out of any raised beds.. . Because the wires do not touch, they will not use any electricity...put in a fuse in case the wires are ever crossed for any reason, , like carrying a board and the board rubs against a wire , shorting it. -

One thing I suggest is to use a tie-down (chain, cord) to tie the front edge of the hoop frame to the front of the bed (maybe one on each front corner) that would be snug when the hoop frame is raised. That plastic makes such a large sail surface that if the wind catches it while it's open there's a possibility of flipping it all the way over, which would over-extend the gas shocks and likely break them.

Anyway, i was at a local Home Depot (all you need "tools and wood, etc.store in the US) and got some Pex, i had the idea the same as you, but you took it to the next level, i couldnt figure out (Frame a window that opens..or door) how to get into the space for access to the plants. you answered it for me, thanks! great video.

@@petelogiudice8202 Dude. You are nitpicking. Either way, there is strain on the pvc...one way it's on the inside of the pipe, the other way it's on the outside of the pipe. BOTH will lead to failure eventually and pvc is pretty damn resilient as it is. It's not like this a permanent structure to withstand the apocalypse either, but if you wanted to really make it that much stronger you could use some UV resistant conduit or a higher schedule (thickness of the pipe wall) pvp although that might make it harder to bend. I could be mistaken on this, because I don't know at what length pvc is sold in Norway, but as for the length of the pipe...it looks like he didn't trim the pvc but just used whatever standard length it was bought as. "Making it longer" would require glue and fittings etc and wouldn't as flex as uniformly as one solid piece. Also, if you drill holes in the wood to insert the pvc, metal saddle or not, it's going to create weak spots on the rails. Couple that with the pressure exerted by the pvc and I guarantee the rail will fail LONG before the pvc does. 1/2" pvc has an actual OD of 13/16"...that doesn't leave very much material if that sized hole is drilled into a 1.5" piece of wood.

I have built similar covers (but significantly smaller) that I have over my plants on the balcony. However, I use fiber cloth instead of plastic, since it let through air, sunlight, rain and protects against insects and birds while keeping the ground temperature even and thus protects the plants from both frost and extreme heat, allowing me to have the lid closed, and thus protect the plants from the wind as well. :) Supplementary note: I bought my fiber cloth at Biltema (in Sweden), but you can find similar fiber cloth online.

Excellent work, Christopher! I have several large raised beds, similar to yours. I plan to use your hoop house idea to attach remay or shade cloth as well, as needed. I read the comments from people who recommended drilling holes in the lengthwise pipe to turn it into an irrigation system. I would rather just lay soaker hoses on the surface of the bed. It is extra money, but watering from above wets the leaves, which may not dry well in this confined space and so can promote disease. I am disabled, so have to reduce work as much as possible. I have a tap at the head of each raised garden bed, to which I can attach hoses for soaker or drip hoses on timers so the beds don't dry out due to inattention or when I am away. I live near Vancouver, BC, Canada, (zone 8)so I can grow certain cool weather veggies year round, and with a hoop house (on my list to make this summer!) I will be able to grow salad greens year round, as well as extend spring and fall for other plants. I will need to drill a hole through the raised bed wood to feed a hose in when the hoop house lid is in use. Thank you so much for the inspiration.

Great idea. I will make a small one using a wooden crate as the base and repurpose a bed frame and hinges in my shed. The only thing I'll need is some plastic sheeting. I may just use spare clothes hanging rope and a wooden prop to hold up the lid instead of the gas cylinders.

Very cool! Thank you! I'm in California USA and this would be great with shade cloth for my blueberries, and plastic when it gets cold. Gas cylinders. Very clever.

I actually had something else in mind using materials I already have, but after watching this video I think I'll try this first and try my other idea sometime in the future. This will be a great starter.

Thanks Christopher, lovely hoop house, I'll be making one for our garden in England. I am going to try a different way of making the hoop supports as I have lots of threaded bar here. I will use 8mm threaded bar cut into 250mm lengths for the hoop supports. I will drill 7-7.5mm holes 50mm deep in the frame, put the threaded rod in the chuck of a drill and screw it in, hopefully it will work! Thanks for the inspiration. :-)

Thanks, Christopher! Your video is very well done, pretty precise and to the point. Good Job! The only thing I would add, at least for US residents, is to remember that most plastic sheeting available and hardware stores / big box stores, not including actual greenhouse plastic, is only 4 mil or even thinner. Try to find 6 mil. thickness if you can, usually at a local farm supply outlet. Here in NC I buy at Agri Supply and they usually have a pretty good supply of different thicknesses, types and colors of plastic sheeting. Also, newer plastic sheeting no longer has much resistance to UV rays and will, by design as an effort to have it "break down" sooner as to not be around in landfills for a gazillion years, so therefore it start to weaken/disintegrate fairly soon in constant sunlight and is also liable to not withstand rough weather. It might be good for up to 6 months from my own experience and will need to be replaced each growing season.
