Structure questions
«

I live on top of a hill and it gets quite windy. As an indication of how windy, my 6 x 4 plastic green house got shredded. I have clayey soil.
Looking at some polytunnel suppliers there are two options I wanted to ask about
1. Securing the hoops-
Base plates that are buried or concreted?
2. Polythene
Trenching, aluminium rail or timber rail. I imagine in the long run I'd be replacing the plastic so timber may not be such a good idea
Thanks for any advice
