Hey friends!
***Don't forget to check out the Q&A that I did for the hoop house build to answer all of your questions! • DIY Garden Hoop House ... AND our "GARDENING & GREENHOUSES" PLAYLIST for more gardening & hoop house content! • Gardening & Greenhouse...
If you love to garden as much as we do, you're probably looking for ways to extend your growing season and protect your plants from the elements & pests, am I right? The battle is constant. We LOVE to garden with greenhouses because they provide fantastic protection for your plants.
In this video, we've decided to build our own 10X20 foot hoop house! After building several greenhouses and now a hoop house, I can tell you the hoop house is less expensive & WAY easier/faster to put up.
This hoop house is built with cattle panels that we purchased from Tractor Supply. What a fast, easy set up! Some people arch their cattle panels all the way to the ground & fasten them down. But we wanted our hoop house to be taller, so as you can see in the video, we built a 24" wooden foundation & then arched the cattle panels to fasten to the wooden frame...which in turn made the hoop house taller!
This DIY hoop house took us maybe 2 days tops! It's big & spacious & I can't wait to get my seedlings in the ground! Just in time for the growing season.
Materials you will need:
1. Greenhouse plastic (4 months after the build we changed out the plastic. We changed it out with a durable, long lasting greenhouse plastic which was 40ft X 25ft, 6 MIL thick, 4 Year UV Resistant Polyethylene: geni.us/CkiYCaD
2. 5 cattle panels (ours were 16ft long by 50in high, made with 4 gauge wire): we bought ours from Tractor Supply Co.
3. Roll of screen for your windows
4. (2) pks zip ties
5. (2) pks pipe insulation
6. Straight nails
7. U-shaped nails (1-1/4” length by 1/4” round crown)
8. Screws
9. (4) Metal T-posts
10. (2) 4x4s cut in half

13. (12) 2x4x10s

After your hoop house is constructed, you can have fun adding some upgrades to enhance your hoop house experience! Two things I always add to my greenhouse & hoop house are shade cloths to regulate the temperature in the HOT summer months & fans to help circulate the air.
