[@danhunziger7300]

Watching Leon be the 1 in charge reminds me so much of working with my Grandpa!!

[@georgekubrick3134]

Even dresses like mine. I miss that guy a lot.

[@johnmcginnis5201]

Very informative Leon. Keep teaching, your knowledge needs to be passed on.

[@donwilliams1193]

I love to watch your videos they are filled with lot for knowledge. Thank you so much Leon. God bless everyone

[@wallstreethomestead5979]

It looks easy to assemble and use, and maintain. Thank you Leon for sharing you knowledge and experience.

[@FaithJRB]

Hi Leon, I have put the frame up of a polytunnel on my allotment in Scotland which is on a hill and can get pretty windy. I am going to tie it like you have shown and learned the trucker's hitch to hold it down. Many thanks for your advice and expertise. 😎🌱

[@jerrykinman8851]

I've watched leon all day😃

[@stephaniemartin6898]

I have been tell people to watch and learn the water wicking method. Thank you for sharing your information. Stay safe y'all

[@patriotstanding6292]

Really really looking forward to getting my high tunnel. Thanks Mr. Leon.

[@NS0O-EN33ec]

Bill, what side are you getting?

[@patriotstanding6292]

Don Johnson probably going with a 14 x 32 Just waiting on a call back from Leon as to when he can ship it.

[@veschlos1]

I just love watching your videos, not full of crap, straight to the point, and really appreciate you sharing all your experience and knowledge with us. Keep them coming!!

[@richardsonramble4166]

Hope you and your wife are doing well. Praying for your full recovery from your accident.

[@darylcampbell3244]

Thank You! A lot of questions have been answered.

[@candiwallace6605]

MORNING cheers Leon!! Great job guys 👌👌❤❤🌱🌱

[@elizabethwilliamson5545]

Thanks God bless you Leon I plan to get one of those soon

[@cm.4828]

I’m getting a high tunnel when I can....that’s neat!! Easy to ensemble!

[@kylez2141]

For me when I stuck the hoops in the ground I just smacked some 2ft rebar in the ground about 2/3 of the way and stick the posts in the ground over the rebar

[@commonsence2cents145]

I want some coveralls like that so i can be a little bit of the man he is

[@gardeningwithleon2816]

T Thrash They sell him at the greenhouse for $100.00 goes to his scholarship fund!

[@commonsence2cents145]

Thank you

[@pegsol3834]

Yes we all need someone to look up to.

[@djcrazykyle1]

My greenhouse plastic is cloth woven plastic guaranteed to last 10-15 years 12 mil from reef industries in Houston tx

[@djcrazykyle1]

I recommend clearn10-16 mil plastic woven from reef industries in Houston TX look them up I have a 12 x 48 greenhouse/ cold frame heater and two interior fans and one exterior fan

[@AmbrrrD]

I love this! Does anyone use this in a snowy region? Do you get much of a season extension? We get tons of snow, so I'd have to remove the plastic for majority of season- but the middle of March I'd like to have something set up for putting starts outdoors early. We're up north about 30 minutes from Canada

[@virginiareid5336]

Thank you so much. I have seen wiggle wire used only once before.

[@laurreneberry3480]

Thankyou, I'v been considering this as A gift and for myself. Needed to know what it takes to put up.

[@SuperBenjamin1965]

Got run a fan I run it 3/4 on high 16x7 dual ply 8 mm Monticello Greenhouse at night I run the De humidifier at 60% plants going nuts I keep an inline filter 8 in in there constantly running I'm trying to go solar save myself some energy at least I'm not running lights 👍 the rest of my 11,000 square feet of land has all kinds of vegetables and stuff going on outside second Greenhouse in case it rains to cover some stuff up one of my favorite hobbies good to see you Take care

[@aliash8599]

I really want one that size , price ? I live in Norrhwest Arkansas. I am disabled so I need to have it installed. Live Mr Leon so much. So knowledgeable.

[@bobwolin5582]

Does the end wall plastic and the top plastic both go in the same wiggle wire track? Thanks for all your help.

[@gregholl5011]

Why not just put shade cloth over the plastic? One advantage is I can still work in the rain. I use scissor doors to open the ends all the way up that vents the heat pretty well.

[@aliash8599]

What is the price for the high tunnel you are putting together in video? How much does it cost to replace the plastic ? Thank you so much .

[@Jimmerca]

Where do you buy this particular hoop greenhouse at? Looks like it’s very well-made !👍🏻👍🏻

[@thedysfunctionalwoodworker7539]

First Mr. Leon, thank you for all your valuable time and posting these videos to help others! I have a question regarding use of ropes: Is there a reason that y'all do that instead of putting on hip boards with wiggle-wire tracks to keep it tight?

[@robertgregory3746]

How can I get in touch with you Leon? I'm interested in purchasing one of your tunnels.

[@garyballard9840]

Put it on the same way on any size. Thanks Gary b

[@Michael1Js]

thank you! DO you discuss how to plant/grow in the greenhouse without heat?

[@DaBear1950]

Leon will a 14x24 tunnel handle the 8 feet of snow we get every year in Jamestown NY?

[@sallyhourt3123]

Do wild animals or cats climb up the side and put holes in the plastic?

[@CrAzYAuNtSiSsy]

I am in New York. Are you headed this way soon? I am hoping I can afford one.

[@NS0O-EN33ec]

I need to check on the price with shipping. Maybe a road trip with a trailer will be a better experience if I get to see Leon’s operation and learn

[@Ironmann199]

What kind of plastic does he use?

[@beckytaul4355]

I want one of these. How is that possible? Thank you so much for your knowledge.

[@frankhopkins7032]

Excellent video Sir! Where can i get prices?

[@cherylterhaar744]

I need one of these but, I need it to be 18 ft. long by 10 ft. wide!

[@leonsloan7971]

Just call, that can be done! 580-564-5909

[@YolklahomaRocks]

How much overhang on the end should we leave to be able to loosen or remove wiggle wire to be able to raise the sides up? Ours is a 16"x80'.

[@leonsloan7971]

On each corner of the house, is you take 3 or 4 foot of the wire loose, it will let you raise the sides up!

[@YolklahomaRocks]

@@leonsloan7971 we did that and the wire is putting hole in the plastic..the smooth part of the wire. We believe we put the plastic on to tight and cut the ends to short. We also put our mule tape on (we have anchors 2ft inground with the hooks/loops on them like yours) and we think we have it to tight as well.

[@AdmiralBob]

I am trying to put in some wicking tubs but am falling down at finding bulk potting mix for it anywhere. I'm at a loss as to where to look. I'm in S.E. Michigan. Please if anyone can help I can't swing the price of bags of mix from the big box stores for the qty I need.

[@cindylong624]

check with landscaping companies ,they may help you out or give you leads

[@allen4353]

How much wind can it take? Can you put heavier plastic to hold up in heavier wind?

[@leonsloan7971]

We have had 70/80 mile an hour winds so far with no problem!

[@taraaslani7619]

Did he say how much this will cost?

[@Mutlap]

what do you do if you tear the plastic?

[@glonlanagan1741]

What is the smallest greenhouse kit?

[@jimdavis7044]

Were can I get prices and purchase one of your greenhouses

[@terributler215]

What mil is your plastic and where do you order it? Thanks Terri from Idaho.

[@leonsloan7971]

The plastice is 6 mil- 4 year poly Can buy at greenhouse 580-564-2166

[@terrydavis5850]

could u not leave the shade cloth on yr round, and just deal with the plastic, or make it where u can open up the the plastic.

[@renaebettenhausen3611]

There is a problem with the audio

[@pennynewell3459]

Renae Bettenhausen I think they film in mono, not stereo, when I wear my earphones it only works on one side. Not sure it that’s the problem, but this is the only channel I have issues with.

[@renaebettenhausen3611]

@@pennynewell3459 That's the problem. my left speaker is not cooperating

[@MichaelTaylor-fk7mn]

Do you sell these kits?

[@johnmcginnis5201]

Indeed he does. Go to the description box on this video - kzbin.info/www/bejne/gnqtgZelq9Kerbc. That is Leon's phone number.

[@pennynewell3459]

Can’t you just put the shade cloth over the plastic?

[@johnmcginnis5201]

You could. Pacific NW you probably would. But generally heat build up will kill your plants. Besides taking the plastic off during the season and storing it extends the life of your plastic.

[@pennynewell3459]

john mcginnis unless, the wiggle wire makes holes in the plastic, from taking it in and out. I know first hand that this does happen. Then you have to replace the plastic anyway.

[@johnmcginnis5201]

@@pennynewell3459 Used to have that problem. I found if I put a sacrificial strip of plastic in over my greenhouse plastic then the wiggle wire I don't have that problem as much. It does make it harder to get the wiggle wire in though.

[@jklxyx3629]

Anyone know the price?

[@gardeningwithleon2816]

Call Leon, different prices. He will send a price list 580-564-5909
