Hi Barry,

You've piqued my interest about the fiberglass sheeting to cover a
hoophouse since the main complaint I've heard is the limited life of plastic
coverings. Is this a specialty item or something from your average hardware
store?

Another greenhouse question. Have people found the use of a water
reservoir (buried to keep it cool) helpful in keeping "highland" CP happy. I
remember a CPN article describing the use of such a reservoir in concert with
an automatic pumping system to keep the plants cool. Has this proved
practical in the long run?

Seosamh,
Thanks for the description of your greenhouse, esp. the bracing system.
I think the wire mesh would be very useful also.
