HIGHLIGHTS
Strong - Triple gusseted cross-braces span every interior bow and span 14.5' across the 22.5' structure. While creating a strong house for our northern climates, these braces also integrate with our overhead irrigation and plant trellising system, creating a quick and easy way to train tomatoes, cucumbers and other vining crops.
Rugged - Galvanized tubing and strong woven poly endwall and rollup panels are built to withstand northern wind and snow.
Walkable side-wall height - The 6' side-wall height provides complete perimeter walk area and easy access to the complete growing footprint.
