hoophouses

Hi Ed, I'm Phil from Iowa.  We have been very satisfied with hoophouses for 
growing almost all year around, only lost one month this year,Feb.  I do use 
some low heat to grow our salad mixes, a wood stove.

If i was you I would buy a kit or at least the bows, I haven't had any luck 
with the pvc in the winter, it gets to brittle on them really cold days, and 
I'm sure you get some of them as well.  I have to much high wind where we are 
at in southern Iowa so I have been using two layers of plastic and us a air 
pump to keep a air pocket, the wind just doesn't seem to tear it up as bad.  

Try Atlas greenhouse systems, I really have got good servie out of them. 
www.atlasgreenhouse.com    They have an on line cataloge.
