They are a cheaper and larger alternative to greenhouses, and without the problems associated with broken glass. • The advantages include easier germination in spring and a longer growing season. They are especially good for mediterranean vegetables like tomatoes, chillies, aubergines, peppers, and cucumbers. • The work to build a polytunnel is significantly more than for a simple plastic greenhouse. Our polytunnel arrived in 13 packages, and the construction took nearly 40 hours. • An experienced DIY'er can undertake nearly all the tasks alone, but the final stage of covering the polytunnel with plastic is a two person job. • Building a polytunnel can be divided into three stages or steps: • Preparing the frame (all the metalwork) • Fitting the doors (all the woodwork) • Covering the polytunnel • • How To Build A Polytunnel
