    Green house panels. Looks a lot like corgated card board construction. They are poly carbonate and very strong. The down side is that I know of only 2 places to get them one is here in iowa, the other closer to the east coast. There still might be one in the western states, but I haven’t seen it listed in a while. If you are a hobbyist you can get green house kits in a few sizes, my mom has a ten ft by ten ft model I have a 2 ft wide model in my basement holding my seedlings. The covers for these are plastic/ vynial and are replaceable. The company here in iowa has an on line catalog farmtek, or growers supply company. Same company. Different divisions they can ship the materials to you, but I think you will need to put it together.


    Its close enough to me I haven‘t had to ship any thing so I don’t know the shipping rates.

    shop out all the supplies you would need to build your green house, total up the cost of building one. The kits might be a better deal, may be not.
