    On a 60 foot long 6 ft tall straight walls, how much do you think the average cost to build this would be?

    2:08 and 2:30 are these really more fragile than the other types of tunnels ?

    The primary reason the field scale tunnels are not as durable is they use lighter weight tubing and the hoops are spaced further apart. They were originally designed to be erected over a crop that had previously been planted to extend the harvest season. Following harvest the structures are disassembled, plastic mulch removed and the crop residue plowed down. Because they are less expensive to erect (square foot basis) first time growers gravitate to them. But you get what you pay for. Here in Oklahoma they are more susceptible to storm damage. As seasonal structures they are good for fall-winter production but are at risk from storm damage in spring-early summer.

    sir are you aware there is a concept to build houses inside of a greenhouse to creat micro climates in cold areas.

    You lose 10% of available light for every layer of covering you put over a crop. And then there's the reduced ventilation factor.
