Is your hoop house anything like the covered rows illustrated in the
pic at this URL - if so where are elastic holddowns like these
available?

"This picture from Japan shows how these simple yet sturdy tunnels can
be adjusted to increase ventilation or to give access
to laborers. The main support is the metal hoop underneath the
tunnel. The cover is held securely in place by the elastic
strips that cover the tops of the tunnels between the metal
supports. The sides of the tunnels can be raised to access the
crop or increase ventilation. "
