Fleece Tunnel VS Poly Tunnel
Posted: Sun Dec 28, 2014 8:19 am
I am venturing into the challenging arena of 4 season gardening. I tried a small amount of crops for late fall harvest. That went about 50/50. But I have been reading and learning more and more.
I do want to invest in economical/durable collapsible tunnels to get a jump start on the season and extend the harvest into winter. I live in WV zone 6. Typical winters avg in the 20's for lows. It does sometimes get into the teens and and single digits. Once and awhile below 0. I would think the benefit of fleece is that it does allow more sun and moisture as well as air circulation. With some frost protection. The poly would not allow water or air circulation, but would have more of a greenhouse effect.
I want tunnels that are easy to access, collapsible, easy to store, and economical.
Any recommendations? Thanks!
