Points To Consider When You Want to Refurbish Your Polytunnel

From time to time, you may want to refurbish your polytunnel. Before you get started on your polytunnel refurbishment, you need to take several points into consideration.

 


Most importantly, ask yourself if you would like to expand your polytunnel. Many experienced polytunnel gardeners are expanding their tunnels. They have come to appreciate that in the future we are probably going to have to grow a lot more of our food ourselves. One thing is for sure, we will certainly become more dependent on local producers.

 

If you would like to join the food growing revolution, it is a good idea to think about what you will need as far as your polytunnel refurbishment is concerned.

 

Size Is Important


Whether you are carrying out polytunnel repairs or a complete refurbishment, you will have realised by now that the size of your polytunnel is important. The larger your polytunnel is, the more produce you can grow in it.

 

A large polytunnel can be divided into different sections. A polytunnel that has been divided into different sections can easily accommodate a wide range of crops. There is also another good reason for dividing your polytunnel into sections. Both pest control and environment control will become more manageable.

 

What About Polytunnel Repairs?

 

How often should I do polytunnel repairs? It is important to inspect your polytunnel on a regular basis. If you notice any areas that need to be repaired, you need to get them repaired as soon as possible.

 

Many polytunnel gardeners leave repairs for too long. One of the downsides of doing that is that pests can enter the tunnel. The other major downside is that repairs left often become more serious and expensive quickly.

 

As the weather is getting increasingly unpredictable, any small repairs left unattended can quickly become more extensive. It is always best to make sure all of your polytunnel repairs are carried out as quickly as possible.

 

How To Manage Polytunnel Repairs and A Polytunnel Refurbishment

 

The best thing you can do is to set aside a budget for repairs or refurbishment. You will find that many polytunnel gardeners sell crops and plants from their tunnels. Part of the profit often goes towards their polytunnel repair or refurbishment fund. It is a great way of making sure that you stay on top of the cost of running a polytunnel.

 

The best time to have your polytunnel refurbishment is during the low-growing season. Make sure that you can protect any crops and plants that you have in your tunnel. You may want to move them to a friend's polytunnel or another storage area.

 

Once your tunnel has been refurbished, it is time to get going again. If you have opted for a complete polytunnel refurbishment, you may want to start growing some new exciting plants and crops. Polytunnel permaculture is an exciting new way of growing food.
