Just ordered my wiggle wire and track for the tunnel. Pretty sure I can swing plastic for the top next Tues. That’ll give me a roof.

Then it will be take the truck to work once a week and buy 4 lengths of chain link fence top rail every week for a month or so for drop down sides and end wall framework.

Then gable vents. Then more plastic for ends/sides. Some wire and connectors. And then finally, linear actuators to operate the sides and vents. Those will be purchased 2-3 at a time because at a qty of 4, shipping jumps from $11 to $33.

Should be an automated tunnel about the time -32 degree nights arrive.

This is so exciting! But only to geeks like us, LOL! Looking forward to what you can accomplish/grow this Fall into Winter Season!

This growing season has been a tough one for me. I am REALLY looking forward to my Fall garden and extending the season in my unheated greenhouse.
