Part 2 of my Polytunnel
Part 2 of my Polytunnel Self-Build. Looking over it's first year and what i'm changing for next year.
Building a polytunnel is pretty easy, if you haven't seen Part 1 it is here -
Building a Polytunnel || How I built ...
Polytunnels / polyhouses are so incredibly useful to extend the growing season and allow us to grow warm climate crops that wouldn't survive even in out best summers. I was asked so many times to put a video together of how i build mine but i think this video will be really useful to anyone who is thinking of building their own.
I look at how to put in supports for tomato plants and planting layouts to avoid blocking light. And how successful my crops were.
One thing i was surprised about was how different the climate was in the polyhouse vs the greenhouse, in terms of humidity and temperatures. Now i understand the differences i will be swapping around some crops for the 2021 season.
I have gone through a lot of the summer footage and I really hope this video is useful!
This season i will be growing more of everything and if you're interested in following along please think about subscribing. I release a new vlog every Tuesday afternoon and the odd Saturday special. Would be lovely to have you along.
