A polytunnel is constructed in three stages.
Stage 1 involves placing the supplied foundation tubes into the ground. The hoops simply slot into these. All other support bars and stabilisers are then clipped to the frame…just like putting up a tent.
Stage 2 is fixing the doors on the two ends.
Stage 3 involves digging a trench approx 12in x 15in all around the framework. The polythene is buried into the trench.
