  • I am looking to grow my own organic veg in my garden but the season don't last long.

    Would having a polytunnel help me grow all year round without spending too much money on garden heater ?

  • @theracemixer Growing in a polytunnel certainly creates the ideal space for sowing earlier, harvesting later making it possible to grow produce that are out of season or exotic to your region. A polytunnel provides weather protection, a sheltered place for nurturing seedlings and enhances your enjoyment of gardening. Through the winter months, with the help of a small heater, bubble wrap or frost protection fleece a Polytunnel requires little effort to maintain. Thank you for watching our video.

  • the guy on the left is full of organic sh++t his greenhouse didnt cost a grand he dosnt own a greenhouse and never as, but hes tryin to promote a polytunnel and as for as a pain of glass in a tree thats crap .next time mate do it on your own .we all no that poly is the way to go

  • what type of polytheen is this? thanks

  • @07aturton Just like on our Domestic & Commercial Polytunnels, the polythene used on our mini polytunnels is Thermal Anti Fog which is 720 gauge (180 micron) and comes with a 5yr guarantee. This film has added UV A & UV B filters which dramatically reduce many fungal diseases & condensation. FOR USE WITH All crops where heat is important such as bedding/annual plants, propagation houses & over wintered vegetable production. .

  • @polytunnels Don't plants need UV A/B for photosynthesis? Or is that only UV C?

  • Thanks Buddy

    Nope - it stinks a bit, but the fumes are no problem to the plants.

    Gas is slightly less fuming - and probably more available than paraffin these days but I'd steer clear of the electric ones - a bit pricey.

  • will a parafin heater spoil crops , it seems to fill with fumes ......

  • well iv watched this video another 30 times with some friends from the parachute club and we have collectively come up with a decision ...( drum roll ) and the decision is that you are in fact not a attention seeking liar , you are in fact a bloody nice fella who speaks only the tongue of truth ....so your in the final well done ......ps iv bought 3 60 foot tunnels for all of my propertys.....im going green big time.........cheers

  • Hi Brandonbug,

    Nope it is really, really true. I can take you, if you really wanted to go. The pane f glass was up a conifer tree, which was also shrouded by a clematis (C. montana, it comes out in the spring). Anyway, the neighbours, whose garden it was, were pruning the clematis, up a ladder, and the pane fell out.

    It scared me to death because they have grandchildren, and they could have been harmed. I can prove this was truthful, but thanks for watching me over and again, kinda sweet that.

  • iv watched this vid five times now and you are definately lying .....

  • did you make that green house story up ? especially the bit about the pane of glass blowing up a tree and staying there for the whole summer ....it looked like you knew you was lying ....
