hoop house

[schmism]

Last year some time i came across a hoop house design that was great. I plan to put one in in the comming weeks and need to find the plan again. But i cant for the life of me do it.

It was built on a raised bed, bout 2-3' off the ground. Had PVC arches and rope was used between eyelets inbetween the PVC to tension the plastic.

this ringing a bell with anyone?

Steve, this may have been it. The Noble foundation site has hoop house designs of all sizes. Here is one that may be the right size for you.

came across that one last night...

This one was a bit taller, they used PT deck boards (5/4) to form the sides and a top rail. Showed a teen sitting on the rail leaning over weedeing/working the beds with the plastic shoved up on the PVC hoops retained by the rope. it used eye hooks right in the middle of the PVC hoops not right next to them.

Was it here on TBN or another website? I thought it may have been mine but no teen to do the weeding. Let me know if you find out who the teen is that does the weeding. There are pictures of my hoops in Jinman's garden thread from last year.

Thats very simular to what im remembering.

I want to say i saw it on the new-farm website, but that site seem to have changed hands or something and as search there didnt turn up anything.

I thought i had gotten the link from TBN.
