Building a HIGH TUNNEL GREENHOUSE: Time Lapse
#hoophouse #hightunnel #greenhouse #diyprojects #timelapse
Learn step-by-step how to build a hoop house in this time-lapse video.
0:49 Constructing the base
2:55 Installing the hoops
7:18 Adding the plastic
9:26 Tightening down the plastic
13:43 Building doors
17:23 Automatic venting
Following is the list of materials we used for our hoop house. I have provided Amazon links for everything practical to buy on Amazon. We obtained all our materials locally except the greenhouse plastic and the automatic vent openers. We already had the pocket hole jig necessary to make the doors and saved money by reusing clothesline and lumber strapping.

      In a hot climate, you probably want to look at more ventilation with fans at both ends and you want to leave both doors wide open in your hot season. Assuming you still have a winter of some type, it can still be a great season extender for you.

    Beautiful build!! I'm in zone 3 Wisconsin and I built a cattle panel house 3 years ago for my daughter's chickens. I have a few suggestions. 1st when you close up for the season give the ridgepole some support. Most winters you won't need the support. Our first winter was a normal winter and the structure held up beautifully 👍. The winter of 22/23 was a real monster in our area. The house held up great until a freak storm in April squashed it like a bug. No chickens living there at the time. 2nd the people that owned my home before me left a roll of reflective livestock fence fabric. Its not expensive and worked great for securing the plastic. Much easier on the plastic than any ropes. It spreads out the pressure. 3rd put a vent on each end above the doorway. Your end walls and doorways are much nicer than mine. I'm a hack 😊. Lastly I think putting rebar in the plastic is brilliant!! You guys did real good 👍

      @shortseasongarden 21 день назад

      It is too soon to know how long it will extend my season. By the time we had it ready to plant in the spring, it was almost time to plant the heat-loving plants outdoors. We haven't had our first fall frost yet and hopefully won't for a while. While the hoop house gets very hot in the sun, it does cool down as much inside as outside at night. I have put a couple black barrels of water in it to absorb the heat by day and radiate it at night. I may have to put a little electric heater in it when a frost is predicted. Next year, I will be able to give you a better answer. 😃

    At 5:04, why are you screwing into the center of one of the pipes? I thought the concept was to screw it the other way around to support the barrier from falling in.

    • @shortseasongarden
      @shortseasongarden Месяц назад

      You are right, the screws would probably offer more support if screwed from the inside out. I think he did it from the outside because it was easier with the screw gun. You'll notice he just barely put the screw into the pipe, leaving as much as possible hanging out to support the lid.

    Thank you for exploring the economics of filling a raised bed . I tried a mix of twigs and small brush with the leaves at the base to resolve the compacting issue I had in past. Also no cardboard. Small amount of composted manure added to the thin top layer of "recycled" potting soil. Lettuce and green beans did very well, and amazingly two vigorous tomato plants.(from New England USA)

    Ok I missed something here. What is the wick? Looks like osmosis, since nothing appears to wick the moisture into the soil. How does the water wick into the soil?

    • @shortseasongarden
      @shortseasongarden Месяц назад

      I am using the soil itself for the wick. In each container a small portion of soil extends to the bottom of the container to act as a wick. In my favorite 5 gal wicking tubs, either with a false bottom or with two pails stacked, I have a pencil holder filled with soil which extends to the bottom of the water reservoir. You need to moisten all the soil in the container. Then when you fill the reservoir in the bottom with water through the fill tube, the water will seep into the soil in the pencil holder, and "wick" (maybe that isn't the correct technical word) up into the soil above the water compartment. With the soda can example, the soil between the cans accomplishes the same result. As I noted in the video, the milk jug example really doesn't seem to work. Hopefully, that clarifies it for you.

  • @onepanman9852
    @onepanman9852 Месяц назад

    I have used the 2 bucket wicking buckets now for 10 years. At first I would remove the potting soil every fall and save it in barrels and refill the buckets in the spring. Now I don't even remove the soil in the fall. I dump out the water reservoir pull out the root mass and let the potting soil freeze dry over the winter. In the spring they are nice and dry, I just amend the soil with my new recipe (it changes from year to year, depending on the RUclips vids I watch over the winter). In a 5 gallon bucket I grow two Tomato plants (determinate or indeterminate no difference in the space they need or water requirements). I will also plant 4-5 cucumber plants in a 5 gallon bucket and 3 pepper plants. by using this method for these plants, my tomatoes will grow taller than my garage roof (15ft) and my cucumbers will get 12ft tall before I run out of trellis to anchor them too. Location is Saskatchewan Canada, zone 3B.

    Very informative! This kind of collapse right here is exactly why I decided to go with a separate, buried "cistern chamber" (basically, a perforated, upside down container with a filler pipe) on my wicking tub, instead of an Earthbox-style false bottom like that. Water is dense and even the lightest, fluffiest potting mix can get VERY heavy when saturated with it. Even with the added screws on the later versions, that flimsy plastic could still collapse. I'm surprised this one lasted 4 years before it failed.

Then I walked back and put the 2" webbing behind my butt then gently threw my butt down and back and the handle effortlessly came back from 90 to about 70 degrees from there gripped the handles and I I effortlessly brought them back to 45 degrees bringing in a satisfying chuck of ground (busting te bard pan)BTW I keep the nylon webbing in place with rubber bands .

    It is possible that the yield was reduced because the total access to nutrients via volume of soil is lower when in a contained space. I'm curious if anyone knows how far deep and wide that Roots will spread when potatoes are grown in soil good for potatoes but in a traditional Garden row or bed. If potatoes have any kind of fungal relationship with their roots, then potatoes in a traditional garden bed might be able to draw nutrients from much further away than the plant via the way that symbiotic fungus can bring nutrients to the plant. I'm not sure if this happens with certain garden plants but it certainly happens all over the place in a natural ecosystem
