ETA: what I put up was a polycarbonate. I wanted something less likely to blow apart as there's sometimes only me here to try to put anything back together; and, while it was more expensive to start with, it should be cheaper in the long run, as it won't need to be re-covered every couple of years.

Once we got it assembled, I like it fine.

Sounds good to me.

I recently put one up from a Farmtek kit. Almost everything needed to be cut to size, which was very timeconsuming. I don't know whether other kits are easier to put up, but I'd look into that factor.

Hi, Folks!
 
Right now I’m doing seed starting in our spare bedroom, but I need more space.  Husband is looking at cost and wants to put in a kit hoophouse.  I’d like to convert space next to the barn to a small polycarbonate greenhouse.
 
Thoughts?
