Nick Tamble Have you considered instead of popping the pvc over droppers, to rather close it off at the bottom with additional pipe and t-pieces to create one seamless structure. Then drill small holes in strategic places and use the frame as an irrigation system?

Great job, something to think about, install two layers of poly and use a bathroom fan to inflat between the two sheets. This will prevent the wind flapping and chewing up the plastic. Mine was still in great shape after four years when we sold the farm.

Thank you for the video. A great way to start a greenhouse. For those who feel the video could have been more stable or flipped to accommodate the view, the message was how to build a greenhouse, not the best way to video building a greenhouse. Great job, I have done some similar but learned some great tips on how to improve what I have done and will do in the future. Thanks again.

[@avg1712]

I love this. We have a wooden greenhouse on a platform because of flooding, but I have been asking my husband for a hoop house over our existing garden, about the same size as yours. We have it sectioned off with Post Poles and seven foot fencing. This structure would fit right over the top of the existing garden without having to remove anything. Thanks for this.

[@ncalimendo]

That's very well done, and an excellent video presentation. I have read that PE sheeting will react with PVC and fall apart, but if you skin the PVC/PE contact area with fabric tape it is not a problem (there is a special tape sold for this).

[@tinman2420]

Using primer on the pvc before you lay the PE will also stop this reaction.

[@justwatching55]

I built one of these several years ago. The UV from the sun degraded the pvc it and made it brittle. The first spring storm that blew through destroyed it breaking most of the pipes. My wife still chuckles about it.

[@driveronehundrednine3225]

Did you do anything to remedy the brittle pvc? Im just brainstorming for my own greenhouse

U must of bought that cheap thin cw pvc...bc hw pvc aint gonna get brittle or brake in the sun for years and years

[@richarddavis2345]

​@@driveronehundrednine3225You could try using gorilla tape or paint the pvc to keep it from degrading.

[@rstevewarmorycom]

A nice transparent greenhouse is pretty, but what most people don't understand is that you can keep it warmer in winter by covering the non-sun sides with aluminized poly or reflective insulation blankets. You can't get sun heat in from the north and most of the east and west sides anyway in winter. Just the south side and half of the top on the south side will contribute solar heat. The reflective insulation will greatly increase your warming inside, and prevent loss at night.Similarly covering the sun side also just at night is even better, with a roll-up aluminized insulative blanket or tarp.

[@NickTamble]

thanks for the comment - interesting insight

[@SwedishMeatball972]

I dig the idear...for clarity, are you perhaps referring to one of those metallic fold-up "blankets" that emergency-minded people keep in their cars? They come packaged all folded neatly in a probably 4"x6" packet? If not, could you give me a description that my rookie self would be able to take to one of the Home stores and find? Many thanks in advance.

[@rstevewarmorycom]

They have numerous aluminized material, rigid as well as sheet-like. If you were desperate you could use aluminum foil and white glue. But most of the insulation sheets they sell also come aluminized.

[@Lincolnator721]

would it keep it much warmer in 20 degree weather? how much warmer?

If you drill tiny pinholes in the underside of the arches you could connect a hose to the main center piece of PVC & you could then water all the plants inside whenever needed.

[@julisagonzalez657]

You shouldn’t water veggie plants from above.. causes disease form water on their leaves especially in a green house where it’s more humid and gets no wind..

[@dans381]

@@julisagonzalez657 That's good to know, thanks, I didn't realize that. Then instead of pinholes like a sprinkler system you could still use the frame to deliver the water but tap into it with small drip tubes from the frame down to each of the plants base.

[@ronmiller7248]

@@dans381 ok so you're saying water tubes inside his pvc will not freeze? Is that it?

[@dans381]

@@ronmiller7248 I was not saying anything about water freezing, water would freeze if it gets cold enough.... I was just pointing out a simple way to pipe water throughout the greenhouse. You wouldn't need to put water tubes inside the frame, the frame would become the tubes.The entire frame is all connected (& hollow) so by attaching a water supply to one point of the frame, then the frame itself can be the water tubes & carry the water to any point you need.

[@kateejustinmills8352]

My experience with PVC-supported plastic structure is you must absolutely remove the sheeting before first snow in winter, or the weight of the snow has no problem snapping off the PVC. But it is a decent setup for the money and pretty easy to build.

[@sitiophoenix]

You could reinforce da PVC with rebar

[@im1494]

So, I actually built my greenhouse (60'x12') by this design. I think it is almost a good design and worked pretty well for the first month. One of the problems I came up against was in the pvc joints being weak points in the structure. Wind the other day was between 20-30 mph and that busted three joints, and that's not even very windy for this area(Helena, MT). However, I plan to replace any broken joints with single poles of pvc 20' long and run them through the cross joints. Not a bad design and fairly cheap, just needs some work.

[@NickTamble]

why thanks! This greenhouse sustained some wind damage 2 months in and we decided to take it down due to it being after last-frost and the covered protection was no longer needed. I highly recommend a protected site with wind coverage - but one that affords adequate sunlight too. Inspect it each time you go out to it - to look for tears or otherwise blemishes to the poly.

[@AurelienCarnoy]

hoo, that is something to consider... i want my green house to last so i should get steel pipes instead of plastic. and a thick poly 6-8 mils. I would like to build a 15' x 15' but i think i will need help to bend the pipes, any recommendation? ty

I really liked the 2 x8 boards at the foot with the clamps. I was going to build a very similar structure only with end caps at the bottom sides. I had also planned on using strips of plywood attached to the outside of the PVC with bailing wire as I was told PVC and poly didn't work well together. Did yours work out well in that regard and did you use schedule 10 or 40 pvc. The reason I wanted end caps was for so I could attach a hose, timer and misting heads for times when I need water. Great video Nick. Thank you.

Just hook your hose to the back end and fill with a timer. I wouldn't have it come out the bottom where it's attached to the re-bar though, you need to have pressure in the line to allow the water to run the length of he system, it would just go right out the first set of supports. Another idea would be to fill the ends, seal them and couple them back up, then run drip line above the sealed bottom segment back down to the soil.

Great video. It's given me an idea for building a chicken run. :)

[@NickTamble]

The PvC Pipe, isn't it much more spendy than a regular greenhouse? My brother built two green houses in the 1990's, years ago. Looks great ,! Is there a place to get the PVC Pipe at a more discount price. My brother is a good carpenter too. Looks like a huge project. Then he moved south. He was in chilly MN. When you said Marshall. It's nice to say what state. I know there was a w Marshall, MN. It's a common name. I love watching this kind of thing. Thank You for the Video. M.L.

Was that regular 6mil visqueen? If the entire project was under 300 dollars and it was greenhouse film I need to know where you got it? :) Before I purchased the commercial greenhouse that I now have (it's 30'X100') I built something similar to this one (it was12'X24'). The 12X24 was covered with regular 6mil visqueen and that plastic became brittle in about 6 months and basically shattered. You need greenhouse film if you want it to last more than a year. It's not cheap but well worth the investment if you want to do this long term. I subbed your channel and hope to see more from you greenhouse in the future as I tend to mine. Chuck

It was 4 mil poly I believe - not "greenhouse" grade...we were doing this as cheaply as possible and did not count the cost of the wood framing or ends - as we had this as recycled materials. I agree on the higher-grade greenhouse film, especially for zone 4 gardening...thanks for the input

[@FensterfarmGreenhouse]

Are you still growing in it? Chuck

[@llgardens]

Fensterfarm Greenhouse no, it is not up during the winter. as soon as weather permits (after last frost) - the poly was taken down and it is used as a more traditional garden...

[@pitpotdeeerste]

not greenhouse grade means that it is not food grade. you are putting toxings in your other wise healthy food. @fensterfarm greenhouse look for ldpe plastic or "growplastics" yes its more expensive then pet , but it last longer and has no "known" release of harmfull toxins, you stil have a 6 f by 30f for 15 bucks

Looks good. How's it holding up? I'm looking at doing something like this in my pool to create shade and help prevent the chlorine from evaporating out.. I would use 3" or 4" as pontoons on the bottom and use the pool itself as the support to hold the shape, then a white tarp for the top. Anyway, thanks for the video.

[@llgardens]

leonscorpio19 we utilize it for early spring and late fall to start eary and extend the growing season. Its a nice structure, but needs to be monitored in high winds...over a pool, not sure how much shade it will create - but imagine it would be a jungle inside with the increased humidity with the pool water. Would love some feedback if you try that application! Thanks for commenting...

[@leonscorpio19]

Thanks for the response. I'm not trying to shade the whole pool, maybe 10-15 foot. The idea is a structure similar to the one you built but instead of the lumber at the base of both ends, I will use the larger diameter piping for pontoons. The outward pressure created when bending the unit to sit in the water will cause it to press against the outer edges of the pool, holding it in place. The tarp will not go all the way to the bottom either, it will also be open on both ends as I won't be enclosing it completely at all. I'm in Georgia so it's humid as heck here anyway. I'm not worried about growth because of how open it will be. It will also be easily moved with two people: one on either side of the pool pushing toward each other and moving to our liking. At least, on paper it seems to work..lol. I'll keep you posted. Thank you.
