DIY polytunnel

[paul]

I've got some land left on my allotment which is about 10 - 13 ft long and 5 foot wide.
Does anyone know where to get some good quality polythene. i have wood for a a frame for a tunnel and only want to buy the covering. Internet or shop, i don't mind.

Paul- Where do you live? Here in Sothern California there is a place in San Marcos called American Horticultural Supplies that will custom make any poly. at any grade thickness you'd like. They also make shade cloth custom to your need or light and lots of other fun things! I think they have a website to order from. Hope that helps!

A lot of Garden Centres sell clear polythene as they do the black pond lining by the metre in varying widths. I suggest you might try some of the bigger Garden Centres.

Hi Corrie,

I live in wet and windy Wales and not Sunny California unfortunately !! but many thanks for the reply anyway.
Much appreciated.

Thanks Moyra, will check out my local garden centre.
