I have a number of low tunnels made from bent conduit hoops and covered in
greenhouse plastic. We've had April in March for the past week here in the
northeast, and I have needed to pull the plastic partly off to keep them from
overheating. My question is about holding back the plastic. I currently have
all my spring clamps from the shop in service, pinching the pulled-back
plastic against the hoop. I am reluctant to buy more clamps just for this
purpose, and wonder if anyone has a suggestion for an alternative way to keep
the plastic from flopping back down to the ground after I pull it up.

thanks, Richard
