Hello All!
My subscribers on Youtube know that we have been following the linguistic forecasting of Clif High and the climate changes that are taking place and will continue are all indicating that protecting your crops from the elements is going to be critical.
In this series of videos, I show how I build a 75' hoophouse on a budget. I also encounter issues and find ways to resolve them.
See what I learned and how you might implement a growing system similar to this for your own food production.
Here I show you an enexpensive way to use solar direct to provide ventilation for the hoophouse.
Here is another one I built for one of my community members;
And Finally some upgrades,
And as Always Please!
Welcome to Steem... thanks for the vid tutorials very interesting... I like how you included details and talked about structural support.

It was definitely a learning process.

I built a couple of cold frames to start my season early, because Canada just is too cold to have a hoop house.

Cliff is a bit of a kook, but growing your own food is never a bad idea.
Very nice work on your part!

I like those hoop houses! I'd like to be able to cover my entire main garden that way, but I can't afford that much material this year. At least I have my new greenhouse that we built last year. I'll be growing a lot of my tomato plants in it this year. They like the heat, but I have to remember to help them with pollination. The bumblebees seldom come into the greenhouse, so I have to help the plants myself.
I put up a couple of posts about my greenhouse here on steemit, if you'd be interested in checking it out.

Would you ever want a koi pond or any kind of water feature around/in your garden? I often think about that when daydreaming about having a larger garden and food forest.

Yeppers, some sort of water feature in my gardens would be lovely!
