The wall I want to put this against is wood, should I use a layer of plastic over the side against the wood to protect it?

What is the plastic?

In reply to cf. Just double the sheeting. Or if you live in a cold climate, use black sheeting instead of white to draw in more heat, this will however require more watering, so if you plan to automate water cycles as well you could very much do that too using hydroponic solar water pumps.

In reply to Robyn. The aluminium tubing can be assembled from old tent poles (cheapest option at your recycle centre) and then tape the tubing to the sheeting, all the poles should be mounted to one peg at the rear so they fold out.

For aluminum, can’t you just substitute that for PVC? Thank you for this terrific design! I have just the place for it. My question is, if I use planters on legs, ~3′ high, do I need to make it taller to protect against cold? Just wondering if there’s a minimum distance between plant and cover re the temp, or this is more to be able to stand under it and/or give room to tall plants. Also I’d love to know how to make one like this that is 4-sided rather than a lean-to; I want to protect young fruit trees in an open area.
