This video will show you how to build a Wi-Fi controlled SMART HEATED HINGED HOOP HOUSE for a raised bed garden that you can build in your backyard! See the MATERIALS LIST below for the required items. Many items are linked under Greenhouse Accessories in my Amazon Storefront* below.
If you've ever wondered how to extend your growing season, a hoop house may be the solution! Building a hinged hoophouse can extend growing season length for months, and adding heating elements can provide enough season extension to grow vegetables all winter long in many climates.
A hinged hoop house raised bed is a small backyard greenhouse lid that attaches to an existing raised garden bed, so this is like a small DIY greenhouse - a heated greenhouse - for little money!
This hinged hoop house DIY design uses incandescent lighting connected to smart outdoor outlet that you can operate via a free app on your smartphone so you can turn the heat-generating lights on and off at your command from anywhere in the world where you have a data connection.
Materials List (For a 4'x10' Raised Bed - adjust to your size):
(3) 2"x4"x10' Lumber - for Garden Bed Rails
(3) 2"x4"x10' Lumber - for Hoop House Lid
(6) 1/2 in. Dia. X 10 ft. Schedule 40 PVC Conduits
(6) 1/2 in. Dia. Schedule 40 PVC Conduit Caps
(6) 3/4 in. Dia. to 1/2 in. Dia. Schedule 40 PVC Conduit Tee's
3" Coated Wood Screws
1-1/4" Coated Wood Screws
(6) 1/2" Coated Screws (for securing Conduit Tee's)
(10) 1/2 in. PVC Snap Clamps
6 mil UV-Resistant Greenhouse Film (I used 12'x25' size)
(2) 3 in. Hinges w/Removable Pin (Zinc Plated, Galvanized or SS)
(1) Handle (Zinc Plated, Galvanized or SS)
(22) #8 x 2-9/16" Ceiling Hooks
(2) 10 ft. Chains
(3) 1"x2"x8' Furring Strips
(30') 1/2 in. Foam Weather Stripping
Electrical Tape
Incandescent Christmas Light Strands (Outdoor Rated)
Wi-Fi Smart Plug (Outdoor Rated)
Extension Cord (Outdoor Rated)

I saw James' video how he made his hoop house over his raised bed, and at the time I thought that his conduit hoops could have been a little longer, as he had to really force them to bend into his conduit caps and I think he put a Lott of stress on those little caps!! You gave yourself a lot more bending room and they were not forced into your caps! Nice hoop house! Especially like the lights, must look fairyland like at night! God Bless!

I, too, thought he built his hoop house too low. It really is only for shorter greens. Granted, he is in a colder climate than I am, but I still think he should have gone higher. Mine is borderline too high, but I'm determined to try and grow tomatoes, so I had no choice. Thanks for watching!

To make your greenhouse last longer use grey electrical conduits. They are UV stabilized. Also your greenhouse plastic will get brittle where it touches the pvc. Pvc off gasses and deteriorates the plastic. I wrapped the exterior surfaces of the pvc with 3” gorilla tape.

As a general rule you shouldn’t screw into the end grain as it’s weaker than cross grain. Over time that is where the grain will loosen and open up first and your hinges will be compromised. Corner bracing will give it a lot more strength and prevent any warping and wobble 😊👍🏽

Very good vid . Been in horticulture and greenhouse building now for 40+ years and your on the right tract. Have a helpful suggestion you may consider which is to build an additional hoop layer of 6” that would attach to your existing one. This extra 6” space WILL work wonders in heating efficiency. Don’t need to provide the specifics for it is quite clear you are very capable of figuring it out. Again your thorough attention to details not normally considered in other vids made this a pleasure to view. Even those who don’t know what a drill is could understand how to put it all together. Best of luck to you.

I saw a big tomato plant wintered in a lightly heated greenhouse in Utah. Its canopy covered most of the greenhouse. After a trimming the tomato "tree" started to wilt. So it's important to keep its big size for moisture and life force though the branches may look straggling. It produced tomatoes in dead winter.

I have used normal 6mil poly for years, and it's still going strong. I think that because I live in the north, the sun isn't as strong as your area. The heating idea is really smart. Another idea, may be a temp controlled gutter heat tracing/pipe heat tracing buried in the soil to keep the soil temp consistent. Great vid sir. New to the channel but enjoying the DIY stuff. I am just accumulating so many ideas!! Cheers!

There are a few ways to stiffen the PVC pipe, if you like the idea it won't move much after the modifications even under heavy wind and snow loads. Basically you put rebar inside, cut it a little longer than the pipe piece to make up the distance through any connectors used. You also want the rebar to stick out the end of the pipe pieces to fit into holes in the base frame for a very tight fit. The rebar is rather cheap, so it comes down to if you want a flimsy frame, or a stiff one enough to spend a little more. A really clever person would also use connectors to link the rebar parts together for maximum stiffness through out the frame. In this method of construction the PVC pipe does little more than cover the rebar as a way to give it a smooth surface, so some folks use other types of tubing that is rated better for solar UV light exposure for a longer service life of a plastic greenhouse frame. Extreme greenhouse projects weld the rebar frame joints and cut the plastic tubing length wise so they can easily fit it over the rebar frame, cut to custom fit, and replace the plastic tubing as needed over the years. It is still important to use a system that prevents the plastic tubing from friction damaging the sheet plastic covering, which often comes down to some sort of low friction tape, or attaching the sheet plastic with double sided outdoor rated sticky tape, or glue. That way if one of the panels of the sheet plastic gets damaged, it is easy to replace it, rather than the entire covering. The same idea is used for geodesic frames made of many triangles of at least two different sizes.

I greatly appreciate this video and how clearly you show it while also building it. Should not be an easy job to clearly shoot a video like this. Quick question: What do you do with it during spring/summer? Do you simply remove it and store it? I am thinking of building another one with a lighter row cover like Agfabric ag-15 to prevent insects and pest like the squash bore....not sure if it is worth building another one versus just changing its cover. What do you think?

TheDenizification you are correct, it took literally 2 weeks to film and edit together, which you can tell by the way I’m wearing 4 different outfits. Having to make those shots dragged out a build that could’ve been done in a Saturday into a multi-day event, but it is worth it to get the info out there. To answer your question, I intend on removing this lid in the spring. However, I intend to build 2 or 3 more that I intend to cover with light row cover fabric and clips. This heavy duty plastic one will be what I will grow tomatoes, peppers and frost sensitive stuff under all winter, but the other floating row cover builds I intend to use to keep bugs off during the summer and as very light frost protection for things like beets, snap peas and other plants that can tolerate a frost but not a very deep freeze. That’s my plan, anyway.

I love this, wanting husband to build one. I would probably not make it as tall as yours since I won't be trying to grow tall produce like tomatoes during winter. I'm in zone 7a so we get quite cold in deep winter. Just need it for brassicas. A lower ceiling would mean less to heat and easier to handle when opening and closing. Also more stable in wind. Thank you for showing how to build it.

You're 100% correct. If you don't need the height, smaller is better. It'll hold up to winds better and be easier to keep warm. More air volume than you need is the enemy. I only built it this tall to try and grow dwarf tomatoes. Hopefully, it works for me. This design in Zone 7a should make brassicas, kale, lettuce, etc. feasible all winter! Definitely do it if you can. I love mine so far.

I'm glad you enjoyed the video! There's no need to fear over modern copper azole treated wood. Avoid the arsenic-based stuff, which isn't sold for residential lumber anymore, anyway. As long as you aren't building a garden bed out of old pressure treated utility poles and railroad ties, you're in good shape 😂

I saw James' video very nice. I have all lumber pressure treated boards... A few years ago I stumbled upon a few hoop houses for 40 bucks. I couldn't pass them up they work great. Very nice video. I will give your remote plug that seems to be what I needed but didn't know they had. I live in TN not to cold here either. Thanks so much....
