    Cheap £90 Polytunnel build done RIGHT!, Single handed, total cost “less time” £145
    Today, I decided to erect another cheap polytunnel, given the last one lasted 10 years so far, Step by step guide to ( Cheap £90 Polytunnel build done RIGHT!, Single handed, total cost “less time” with batons £145
    I already had the flute board so that would be an extra cost………. Or just use Visqueen or plastic.
    Make sure if you do this, you select a GAVENISED Frame. Ideally 25mm framing but this one is only 18mm. The polytunnel will be a no dig, citrus tree and fruit tree affair, as they are suffering in the pots and difficult to maintain.
    This is a step by step guide how to erect a cheap polytunnel which means lots of preparation, but the end result will be worth it, so if you have had no luck with cheap polytunnels in the past? then this video is for you
    THANK YOU TO ALL MY SUBSCRIBERS. Every single one of you.

      Thank you Ali I'm hoping it may help someone else with building a cheap tunnel to see what the best way is to hold it down in bad weather. And it gets bad weather to test it the same day its finished lol 😆 stay tuned for Friday nights video. Stay safe Alan

    Yay! The old intro. To me the tune suggests outdoors and countryside, and I love seeing the pigeon landing.

    Thank you for sharing Alan.
    We are looking at blue pipes for our frames and securing with scaffolding in the ground so the pipes can go over it.

    New intro Alan! Love it !!!! You are a clever chap fairplay! I really want a polytunnel. Wish I had the room!! Imagine using 4 hooks for that thing. I feel sorry for people who purchase them and they get blown away. Companies need to spend more time in the anchoring side. Yours is looking amazing Alan. Fairplay ! Looking forward to part 2 .

    I’ve have had an eBay ‘polytunnel’ like that and believe me, you’ll need all the guy ropes you can get! Mine moved from the back garden to the front of the house unaided in a strong wind 😱

      @Alans Allotment maybe I should have a bit of faith and give one a try , seen a couple of similar ones go flying onto adjacent plots near me so , u think i would have sleepless nights whenever the wind was picking up . best of luck
