plastic greenhouse?
« on: June 20, 2008, 12:15:00 »
Hi,
we are thinking about getting a walk-in plastic greenhouse from activegardening.com as a real one costs a lot and we are renting so a plastic one is more portable.

I am worried it might blow over even if they provide guy rope and pegs, is it enought?

what are you're thoughts about it, are they as good as glass one?

cheers

Not quite as good as glass... but even they can blow over... the ropes probably aren't enough from what others have said... :-\

Truth is, it needs weight. Winds can be very strong.

It is hard to beat glass for that.
