Outsunny Walk-in Polytunnel Greenhouse, Outdoor Garden Tunnel Greenhouse Tent with Zipped Roll-Up Door and 8 Mesh Windows, 4 x 2M

Product Information

You’ve got your 6 roll up vents, they are definitely needed along with opening the door on the hottest Summer days, overall this is a real bargain. Pros: It’s suitable for gardeners with medium-size plots, as the tunnel itself measures 3 x 2 x 1.9 m. Although it is not as high quality as some more-expensive models, it still strikes a good balance between size, price and quality.

Garden Point Green Polytunnel – bit of a tear on the corner – is there anything duct tape won’t fix? 😀 These handy tips are more than enough to see you through a simply install but a further bonus is to have a cordless drill and impact driver with the correct size hexagonal bit for the nut – normally 8-12mm that I’ve seen in my experience assembling these kits. Assembly is straightforward, with galvanised steel hoops that support the polypropylene fleece. They push easily into the ground, and are threaded through the fleece, so all you need to do is extend the tunnel out like a concertina. It also folds up easily too. No planning permission required. Like greenhouses, polytunnels don’t require planning permission. This makes them far less time consuming to set up than other outdoor structures. So how is this beast constructed? Good question. The frame comes in four huge hoops with one swinging door at the front of the tunnel. The frame is made from a rust-resistant tubular steel, powder coated to enhance the frame’s overall strength and extend its lifespan. Unlike the other polytunnels we have looked at so far in this review, the VonHaus polytunnel frame is connected by screws and bolts and not plastic attachments. This feature works hard to reassure me of the sturdiness of the polytunnel, however it does of course make constructing the product that little bit harder. Despite saying this, with all of the assembly parts included, in addition to clear instructions to help the user, the assembly of this product is surprisingly easier than you would expect – plus once you’re done assembling the tent you will have a structure the size of a shed, so the assembly process is bound to be a little longer than that of VonHaus’ smaller counterpart polytunnel.The competition is tight, but price tends to be the decider so, in my humble opinion, the VOUNOT polytunnel is the best polytunnel on the UK market in 2021. Roll-up mesh door and eight windows: Easy to access inside this polytunnel greenhouse, with the windows bringing in fresh air when needed. Bolts are normally 8 to 12mm and an impact driver makes this a breeze as well as can really secure the bolts WALK-IN GREENHOUSE: Heavy duty greenhouse is an ideal way to extend your growing season by protecting plants from cold and birds while easily managing your plants. Suitable for growing tropical plants, vegetables, fruits, flowers, etc

In terms of assembly it’s just like any other polytunnel, loosely tighten your bolts, get a hand with the canvas – don’t do this on a windy day and if you do please send me the video for entertainment 😀 Then once the canvas reasonably in place it’s time to then tighten it all up and slide the canvas around with minor adjustments. Although it’s a cheaper option, this Garden Point Polytunnel remains relatively robust and sturdy. It can cope with higher winds, and with being placed in allotments that aren’t particularly sheltered. Nevertheless, as with most polytunnels, there are still some customer reports of it tearing in the wind, and additional weights or stakes are required to secure it to the ground. Large, open design: Walk in greenhouse offers plenty of growing room for plants, vegetables and more. Open design allows you to set up shelves and potting tables inside.Sturdy, rust-resistant steel frame for long-lasting durability; - Poly tunnel greenhouse perfect for gardeners, green fingers and people who love plants and flowers; - Large enough to give plenty of room to enjoy growing; - With large walk-in door to offer easier entrance; - Transparent cover allow the sunlight to reach plants and flowers; - Assembly required; In terms of weather resistance, the frame stands up well to strong winds and turbulent weather, although it will likely need weighting down with stakes (which aren’t included). The PE cover is relatively resilient as well, but it does have some weaknesses. Measuring 6 x 2 m, this is a suitable choice for medium-size allotments. There are 2 metres of headroom inside the tunnel as well, so for many people – up to approximately 6’5”– there’s no need to stoop. Of course, the way you use your polytunnel is totally up to you. If you wish to use it in the place of a shed, therefore simply as an outdoor storage space, then that is your prerogative. Green polythene absorbs a lot of the red-light spectrum. As a result, it’s particularly beneficial for plants which thrive in green-light spectrum conditions. Fleece

In more unpredictable weather, the waterproof cover stops plants from getting over-watered, and the combination of the frame and cover helps protect plants from wind damage. Controlled environment. The climate inside a polytunnel is far easier to control than the climate outside. You’ll be able to control the temperature to some extent, and there’s less risk of rain, wind or frost damaging your plants. Protective plastic cover: Garden polytunnel shelters inside plants, whilst letting nourishing sunlight pass through - helps promote growth of plants.The largest greenhouses on offer can look like mini houses but are made of transparent materials to allow UV rays to enter. These greenhouses are generally the most versatile models as they are very durable, provide maximum sunlight to plants and can be very large. They also tend to be the most attractive models. It measures a whopping 2 metres in height, 3 metres in length and 2 metres in width, making it a monster of a garden accessory, big enough to house a jungle of plants. Whilst the polytunnel is certainly big from the outside, it is the inside space which is of a higher importance, something you certainly won’t have to worry about with the VonHaus polytunnel which has an impressive floor size of 6 metres squared. Wow. Alternatively, if you’re looking for a smaller, low-level polytunnel to provide frost protection, a height of 1m will provide clearance for a variety of plants . The canvas needs two people – not only is it easier, you’re far less likely to tear anything or get them caught on bolts which can hole the cover too

They can act in a similar way to a greenhouse, keeping temperatures up and humidity high and therefore allowing plants from different climates (or seasons) to grow comfortably. They can also protect plants from wind damage, insects and frost, depending on the style you go for. Our final product is the VOUNOT polytunnel greenhouse, another absolute beast of a polytunnel which is incredibly similar to the huge VonHaus polytunnel described above.Some polytunnels have air vents/’windows’ on the sides, which can be opened or shut depending on the weather. Additional Sections These polytunnel covers are slightly more opaque and do not allow as much light in. They create shady conditions inside the polytunnel which are suitable for shade-loving plants. There area few key factors in ensuring your polytunnel stays still, even in a serious gale there shouldn’t be much reason to fear, though if you’ve already got one you do question at home, I hope the polytunnel is holding up 😀 – still, let’s look at how to fix one in properly and make sure it never blows away – and if it does, your neighbouring polytunnels went long before yours! So here’s some tips to hold polytunnel down here: Portability. Polytunnels can be moved around the allotment or garden if needed. They are generally very lightweight. To better protect plants from frost, look for polythene with an infrared additive . This traps heat, giving your plants a reprieve from the cold weather. But, whilst warm air can be a blessing, it may also be a curse – ensure that any highly-insulated polytunnels have air vents or windows to provide adequate ventilation.
