The high winds did some damage to the hoophouse but we'll get it straightened up! Upblocking Lisianthus to help them grow.

    We got it straightened out but it was actually worse than it looked once we got in there working on it. Next one I build will definitely be much stronger!

    @@jampackedfamilycountrylivi8022 We put zip ties at almost all of the intersections where the panels meet. I had wove a 'poly line' all along where the panels meet and one of them broke. (I'm guessing from it not being tight enough and it rubbing against the metal.) I chose the poly line over the zip ties originally because it is mold and mildew resistant. I had read the zip ties break down quickly and I didn't want to be replacing them all the time. I think this will work as we have had other severe storms with no damage at all but will certainly be watching the structure for any movement of the walls. I want to do a video soon to tell people what not to do, lol

    Oh, and there are a few small pipe clamps holding the panels together too.
