I love it! 💕 It's too bad that they're only located in the uk. We could really use something like that up here in the high deserts of california. Our winds are horrible we tend to have very cold Winters but our summers would probably eat this thing alive. That would be my only concern is that it's not UV protected enough for temperatures that can get as high as 120°. I do love it however and think that closer to where we have some shade trees that thing would be amazing.

Chris from Epic Gardening has a greenhouse made of the polycarbonate material that the polycrub is made of. She lives in Vancouver, BC, Canada. Maybe she has some tips to find the material in your local area.

I was just thinking about that, too. I'm in Mohave Co, Arizona. We've been having winds 30-60mph these days, but you are very well aware of these high desert winds. If there was a US supplier of something similar, we'd still need sunshade over it from about May to October. We don't have shade trees where we would need this. I was thinking that with something like this, we might actually be able to grow citrus.

from my limited poly tunnel experience, it will heat up very quickly when the sun hits....some vents above the doors might be required to keep moving the excessive heat at the top on hot sunny days.....we would fully open both ends of our greenhouses to keep them cooler...even at 40F, 8000ft elevation.....i realize your climate is cooler in general, so i could obviously be mistaken.....

I was considering one of these for our next greenhouse and would have been inclined to split it into two so as to have four gable ends rather than two for ventilation. In the end I have decided to build another 10mm polycarbonate clad pent roof design built from 3x2 and 4x2 timbers which is what we have now. By screwing the twinwall to the timbers at regular intervals with load-spreading washers its all stayed put despite being in an exposed site. Even in the UK I think it's hard to have too much ventilation in a well insulated greenhouse.

For your door stop to hold the door. Install a vertical sliding rod ~1/2" that can be latched in the up position. Drive a piece of pipe big enough for the sliding rod, into the ground at the desired open position. When the door reaches the desired open position, simply release the sliding rod to insert into the ground pipe. Simple and available at most hardware stores.

@@alanmcmahon7154 We found blue water pipe, same thickness and diameter as the salmon feed pipe. It was laying in a yard near His Nibs' work and was going in the skip. They took £40 for it. Ask around water companies, local council works, anywhere people are building, etc. Pop in to anywhere that has a 'yard' and ask. The most expensive part was the 10mm twinwall we bought from Varico online. Ours came to about £700 including the joining sleeves and the buttons. Our posts cost us about £125 for 10 pressure treated 75mm round. Screws don't hold in those pipes by the way. The hoops have short pieces of your round posts shoved inside and screwed into place, spaced like numbers on a clock, or pi (approx. 15-20cm long). The greenhouse would fall to bits in a high wind without them in there as all your beams etc are screwed through the pipe and into the wood. We used plumbing rods to shove them into place. Polycrubs have 7 pieces in each pipe and 11 pieces in the front and end pipe, for the framing etc. to go into, but we just did 7 in every pipe. Total cost of our polycrub was under £1000 but it would have been around £4000, maybe more. It measures 10' wide and approx. 13' long with 5 inch overhang each end. I have 3 hoops left over if we want to extend it. Hope this helps.

Great design. The cost is just okay though. The building is about $5,000 and doesn’t include S&H cost, grade costs, or build costs. Polycarbonate is great, however double polyethylene has a comparable R value or insulated equivalent. The building being put into concrete is smart and protects your investment. I can build a post framed greenhouse for much less though, with polycarbonate and or polyethylene. A 10 ft by 40ft is $6,000 total with labor in the states. That’s 2 doors, polycarbonate ends trimmed out, and double polyethylene. For about $2,000 more it can all be polycarbonate. The polycrub is the best design I’ve seen next to mine. The main difference is I can customize my building for any need. I only build local so it’s not really available to everyone is the down side.

WoW, that is truly a thing of beauty and function! This is the first video of yours that I have come across and you and it are definitely creations of sculpted and poised beauty! Heh. - not to mention, very edifying! I guess the KZitem Skynet algorithm has deemed me worthy now to be exposed to you. LoL... Ya never know what's REALLY going on with YT! Anyway, I'm over here in the US and we're buying acreage in the middle of the country around the border of the South & Midwest (as much as we can possibly afford!) for a self-sufficient homestead (as the country slowly {rapidly?} spirals into collective madness and possibly civil war or collapse... It's true- you may have already noticed... [Canada is worse as it inches toward totalitarianism & dictatorship...]) and we're going to go the polycarbonate route to grow in all four seasons too. I've had it up to HERE with changing plastic coverings! 35 years for the polycarbonate? WoW! It's so beautiful too and with the insulative properties of a double wall! Even if it's expensive it is worth that. Where we're buying, it's a moderate climate with 3 nice seasons and one resembling Hades with the heat and humidity. There's a price for everything and a brief but hot and humid summer is the price we will pay for 9 other (to my mind) wonderful and pleasant months. I'm probably going to design & build some polycarbonate greenhouses with the Gothic Arch form (although your half-round is extremely sturdy too) and a number of combined innovations (everything must do double or more service!) including making the pathways inside boardwalks with composting worm bins underneath to keep the worms warm in the winter and harvest lots of miraculous castings year round! Anywhoo, sorry for going on, but that's just what I do... :) Your video was infectiously cheerful, thought provoking and I'm going to view your others. I'm so happy for you and your new wonderful greenhouse!!! All The Best from the Asylum across the Pond!

Not many are using glass or soft plastic most are using polycarbonate sheets like your Polycrub. For all the reasons you mentioned which are all very valid.

We do have pretty serious winter gales, here in the Shetland Islands, which easily top 100mph. Sometimes even up to 200 if it's particularly bad (though that's a rarity). We've personally lost three greenhouses to heavy winter storms - two glass & aluminium, once Keder sheets and Galvanised steel. The glasshouses were flattened, and the Keder one took off like a kite - but that was after a particularly wet winter had left the ground absolutely sodden and it wasn't cemented in. Those were before Polycrubs were available. You see lots of them here, and they all stand up to the winter gales incredibly well, so I think that's the route we'll be taking too.

Wish it was possible too,for me. Cooking is more of an automatic thing, my wife does it. 😘 but there is heat that must be the dominant feature here . Get it automated by ventilation. It will make life and successful growing easier. Love it. Even powered blowers for excess temperatures.

Why don't you just put a normal door handle in the thing that can be opened from either side? Like 10 bucks from hardware.

Sliding door would answer your dilemma as far as doors go

It is a satisfying feeling to look at a finished polytunnel or greenhouse you have built or even also designed yourself, rather than from a standard kit. It will open up all year round gardening to you, especially in terms of winter salad leaves. I don't suppose you know what 14 x 7m is in 'old money' (feet and inches) for those of us with a few more 'miles on the clock' (older) who still think in imperial measurements?

Could you estimate the diameter of the aquaculture tubes? Look like about 4 inches or 10 cm. Thanks

Tanya, Quickest, easiest way to tackle the doors is to take the existing latch hardware off the rear doors and move them to the inside; this solves your solution of needing to open them from the inside and means you also have a quicker escape route of you ever have an issue where you can't get to the other doors. To hold the doors open, yes a lovely latch would be nice but a couple of eyelets in each door and the external wall will enable you to simply use gardening twine or wire to hold them open.... Or keep using the eco stone you have ;-) I'm super jealous as it's literally the size of my backyard growing space. Best of luck; we can't wait to see what you grow. Sammi x

That is a great structure, over here polycarbonate is used for many things, outdoor patios covers etc but not seen anything like this. Here in Tasmania it would be an amazing addition be it small or large for home gardeners. My one question what about hail will that damage it at all? I love the barn doors, I hope they will provide adequate ventilation in the summer. Cant wait to watch how you develop the inside Tanya. Lucky you it is beautiful.
