The following season I built simple wooden ends with removable wooden panels for lots of ventilation, covered the metal frame with some hot spot tape and covered it with good quality tunnel plastic which i trenched in along the sides and used strips of wood to secure the plastic at the ends. It's survived a good few violent Atlantic storms over the years and I'm still growing in it to this day!


Best of luck with it and happy growing!
Thanks a lot, this gives me a LOT! of great ideas. I really like your setup, we will probably do something similar long-term.
