Are Amazon Greenhouses good? (Build + Upgrades) 

Check the description for links to the Greenhouse and a good tiedown option. The size of the one in the video is a 26'x10'x7'

Awesome! I actually really need to build a greenhouse, but I just don't know how to build one economically. The RU-vid algorithm has definitely blessed me today. Really great video. 🙏

Loved hearing your children calling you daddy. So sweet.

I bought 2.... used both frames as one. So it has twice as many ribs. There will be no sagging of the cover holding snow etc.

I purchased one a few years ago. If you plan on keeping it up all year and live in an area that is windy or stormy a lot make sure you anchor it. I used earth anchors and ratchet straps on mine. The weak points I noticed were on the corners where it rubs on the frame so keeping it tight is a great idea. I found that the strings and velcro on the windows wear out after one season. The zipper on the doors start to get hung up and eventually get stuck and will not move. I used this greenhouse to protect my citrus and frost intolerant trees in the winter and in late winter and early spring I start planting starts for the garden.

This is a fantastic video, thank you soooo much! I too just ordered the cheap estimate greenhouse from Amazon because it’s all I could afford at this time but worried about it’s ability to stand up to the elements. I’m so excited to find your video showing this! You made it easy to understand and I am going’s to try to do this ! I so appreciate your sharing this. Just subscribed, thank you!

I just pulled tight and used sikaflex after pulling tight and weighing down plastic. But I like the idea of plinths you've placed around base.

This is exactly what I was looking for! We just bought a Vervo greenhouse and immediately I knew it would not withstand the winter in New England if we don't reinforce it.

Good job and thank you for sharing... Don Eastern Oregon

Good job man your a good dad

Looks good.

Could you please tell us the width of the doorways? Thanks for all the great info in the video!

Good job, love your kids. Something I would be curious about is that I heard the plastic covering on these is crap and only last for a year maybe two. I saw another Amazon tunnel build where he had to use two more supports, one on each side, of the existing center ridge support to help with water run off and not making a pocket.

Thanks for the video..very helpful..I am looking to do something similar. What size timber did you use for the polytunnel base and door frames?

Good job mate I have same one same way build it’s working very well I am from Melbourne Australia

You need to anchor the wooden base. Otherwise, it makes no difference. How can you remove the greenhouse after the winter? It's the best way to extend the life before UV kills it.

Whete do u get replacement plastic and shade plastic

Hi i have just purchased a similar greenhouse and plan to build it this weekend. Did you secure the polytunnel metal base frame directly to the timber frame with screws?

The big problem with these greenhouses is the plastic, it will last you 1-2 years then it fall appart to much. good thing is the structure is good so you can change the plastic with proper greenhouse plastic when its done.

Great job! Looks solid! What mph winds did you experience in your storms?

Have had the same. Frame is ok and should last but the cover 2 seasons max.

How is the wooden frame secured to the ground?

Which amazon greenhouse is this?

I just built one, but it’s a lot smaller than that one

these tarps/cover do not last long... especially where the bolts are at, and all the edges from wind

I wish I had mad skills like you.
