Cole, I think it's the combination of salt air and humidity and the hot sun along with the whipping of the wind in combination that rips the poly around here. I know it sounds crazy but we are too close to the gulf of mexico for having simple greenhouses like yours. I would still have to anchor it and have a permit and would still have the problem of large pieces of plastic to deal with in the wind. It is just not an optimal situation for this in my area. If I had homes all around me to help block the wind it would be a far different situation. I really wish I could do something like that.
