The UK soft fruit farming industry has experienced a revival over the past decade. Production is increasing, product variety is expanding, and the industry's value to national GDP is growing. While farming efficiency has contributed, the key factor in this success story is Commercial Polytunnels UK . Thanks to the introduction of large scale commercial polytunnels , soft fruit farmers have benefited from: ●      Longer Growing Season: Before the use of commercial polytunnels, the growing season lasted approximately eight weeks over June and July. Now, subject to location, growing starts in May and can last right through to September. The extended growing season leads to greater local production and reduces the need for international imports. ●      Higher Quality Fruit: Growing fruit in a polytunnel helps to maintain fruit quality, so the majority of fruit meets the major retailer's strict requirements. Today's savvy consumers pay attention ...

Once you decide to invest in a polytunnel, you want to be sure you are buying a quality product that is value for money. We always recommend purchasing the best quality product your budget will allow. That way, you are sure to get years of service instead of forking out for repeat repairs. If you are on a tight budget, one way to save money is to install your own polytunnel. Even if you are not a DIY master, you should be able to tackle a basic garden polytunnel.

Autumn is the perfect time to give your polytunnel some TLC and get it plant-ready for spring. Investing time into maintenance pre-winter will help your polytunnel survive the winter unscathed and allow you to start growing again as soon as conditions are favourable. Of course, depending on your climate, you can still grow crops during winter and over-winter plants ready for spring.   Clean-Up Autumn is an ideal time to give your polytunnel a thorough clean inside and out. Cleaning removes all the surface dirt and dust that builds up over the summer months. Sunlight in winter can be hard to come by, so you want to make the most of what is available. A clean polytunnel cover will allow maximum light through and help any plants you are growing.   Check For Damage When you are cleaning your polytunnel , it is an ideal time to inspect it for damage, especially the cover. Inspect every inch of your cover and patch up any holes or tears with specialist repair tape on bot...

Polytunnels are a cost-effective and easy-to-build alternative to greenhouses. However, you still need to invest the same amount of time and effort when deciding where to put one. Unlike a greenhouse, it is possible to move a polytunnel if its location doesn't meet expectations. But, let's be honest, it's much better to get it right the first time! To help you choose the optimal spot for your polytunnel we've put together a list of things to consider. As long as you bear them in mind, you'll pick a prime site and get the best out of your polytunnel. Sufficient Sunlight Sunlight is essential for plant growth and ripe produce. It's absolutely critical to the success of your polytunnel that it receives adequate sunlight each day. You need to be mindful of the shadows cast by surrounding buildings and trees.
