I bought Sunmaster clear greenhouse film from Farmtek. $27 to cover the greenhouse.

I put a piece of re-enforced tape & zip-ties to attach the plastic to the frame

I used a lot of zip-ties, no problems with the wind.

peace

watch the water leaks if and when it rains.. causes a lot of moisture.. you know what that will cause.. nice job on the green house bro.. i'll b watching u grow

I hear you bro, don't want mold. The top has no zip-ties in the middle, only the outer edge. The top is whole with out any holes except around the outside edge, no leaks.

What's up jj-
The greenhouse is looking great!, I have a couple of questions.....
1) I thought you were using "Solex" panels and not the greenhouse plastic.for the roof this year?
2) Last years plastic looked like it diffused the light better/different then this years roof?
3) This years roof looks like it lets in more light, but how about the security/lookie loos issues, I can see right through that roof. I guess when you have the roof 15+ feet up, that's not an issue!
Keep up the good work-

thanks for the photos JJ,I also thought you were going with the panels this year,any reason you chose not too?I was interested in the solex as im in such a windy area im afraid plastic might get torn up.

**doublejj** · 04-30-2011, 05:53 PM

The solexx cost about $350 to cover the greenhouse. This sunmaster greenhouse plastic was $27. There are many different greenhouse films with different light defusion. This is the clear type. They have it in white also. If this doesn't work I'll put solexx on.

You can't see thru the roof from the ground. You would have to get onto my neighbors roof to see thru. I've never seen them up there.

Solexx would work very well, I just tried to save a little money. I may still cover it with solexx.
