@billjacobson1967 We did the same thing and used 6 mil, I'm amazed yours lasted 2 years... ours didn't even last the summer before disintegrating and ripping.

actually, nature (via the rabbits or squirrels) is one way for plants to take care of things. Raspberries and other fruit bushes have developed growing well in spite of gnawing and chewing by rabbits in the wintertime. They come back stronger in the Springtime, unless it's been one of those extra brutal winters.

Yeah i know about the condensation problem, that's why i need to engineer some kind of ventilation system to try an prevent black mold. I'm thinking even if i spent $2000 on alot of treated lumber it would still turn black. Might need an exaust fan. You'll see in about 5-7 years that clear plastic starts to break down (microscopic cracks/tears/rips) because of the sun's radiation. But if i had a greenhouse i figure i could grow anything & all year long.

@selder03 It is 6 mil greenhouse plastic and hasheld up very well for 2 years and we have some very high winds and lots of snow in winter. It was about $70 for the plastic but well worth it, I would not skimp in this area.

I have to get the box trap out and try to catch it. I never see the rabbits during the daylight.
