Re: Greenhouse problems/PVC

We used sched 40. It's great when it isn't exposed to strong sun. And there
are a few pieces that are still hanging in after a few years, but most got
brittle fairly quickly.

There are two types of white PVC.  There is the cheaper thinner one,  and
then Schedule 40 which is rated for outdoor use, and is much stronger, and
lasts
a long time.  We use the schedule 40 on our water garden  installations
and
other applications.

the white stuff.
