Ok now you have some explaining to do
I have major tunnel envy. How the he11 did you get the skin that tight? What’s under your weed fabric? I’ve never seen such a flat level floor ever it’s incredible
What make of tunnel is it ? It’s awesome

Right it’s a Colm Warren tunnel https://www.thepolytunnelcompany.ie/polytunnels

These guys put up the tunnel for me. They recommended to have 2-3” of round gravel under the poly tunnel and they fitted the mypex weed fabric. This is so when using raised beds the water will drain down through the fabric and then the stones, then no mess on the floor.

My spuds that were sown on 4th July, are now nearly 10” high

Thanks can the man.
I’ve learned something new. Very nice tunnel, very impressive.
Spuds are looking good too

That tunnel is beautiful, Can.


Never thought I'd say that about a PT but it is.

I agree - that's a thing of beauty. I kinda opened the image thinking the girls were exaggerating, but no... it is beautiful

It’s a present to myself from my mam who died 2 years ago and left me a few bob.

I harvested 6 stalks of potatoes from my poly tunnel they are the strain Nicola, a 2nd early. Just had them steamed for dinner and they were beautiful.



I’m really happy with my experiment
