      Thanks! I think so too, very pleased to have them up and can't wait to put some plants in 😁

    I had the smaller version which lasted for at least 5 years. It was in a sheltered position though.
    I love the warratah idea. I'm going to use that on my next one.
    I have one recommendation though and that's to use insulation tape around the plastic connectors and tape to the framing. They can break easily in wind movement.

      This is an excellent idea!!!
      Ours have lasted well (I'll post an update on FB at some stage soon), but I'm going to rope husband in to help me move them to a more sheltered spot so I can leave them open more, without needing to be concerned so much about the high winds we get here! 🤞

    We have had this style of greenhouse before and found that we had to open the door when it was sunny so we didn't cook our plants. Not an issue as long as we remembered!

      Yes I'm thinking the same, and we're out there every morning to sort the chooks and dogs etc. do easy enough to add "zips" to the morning/evening jobs - but might look into some after market alterations for ventilation too, especially for summer.
      If we do it right we should be able to create one as a create propagation space, and the other as a (miniature) beautiful tropical paradise 😍
      Got lots of ideas flowing 🥰🌻💚 will be sure to share everything as it eventuates 😊

    We had the round roof version of that with the same plastic pipe joiners etc. It collapsed in heavy rain because the water created a pool on the roof. Yours should be better with the steeple style roof. The fabric ties on ours disintegrated quite quickly as well. We replaced them with zipties (before the whole thing went in the bin lol )
    Best of luck :)

      Oh very good to know! Yes we were advised to make sure the plastic was pulled very tightly into place, and as said in the video husband is a little worried about the ties. Can fix a lot in this world with the right sized zip tie though aye 🤣
      I'm really hoping we get at least a few seasons out of them 🤞
      Time will tell :)

    I have the smaller version that is clear. I thought the same about the wire shelves, so bouncy and flimsy. Mines just on my back deck because i wanted to make a start and wanted it nice and close, also means it cant blow away 🤞

    • @digdeepgardeningforlife
      @digdeepgardeningforlife  Рік тому

      Deck is an excellent idea especially for this time of year - even our mangoes are doing ok outside on the deck for now (though will go into the greenhouse very soon), that little bit of elevation makes a big difference.
      If our deck was big enough I'd have opted for that too! - but considering closing some of it in, maybe with clearlite, for plant safety 😅
      And yes, even a smaller one will give a great head start for seed raising 🥰 can't wait to see what you do with it ♡♡♡

    My neighbors have had one for about 4 months, the wind has destroyed it, now it's covered in ducttape, and the zips on the door are stuffed so it has a tarp bungy corded over the door now.

    • @digdeepgardeningforlife

      Ooh very good to know - might have to do monthly updates on how they're faring haha (love that the neighbours have fixed it up instead of throwing it away straight away! Buuuuut should have to aye 🧐)
      We've definitely strayed from the instructions as far as erection/install, so hopefully our "updates" will buy us some time 🤞🤞
