    Dang! That’s all good info thank you! I wonder if 2 could be combined lol. Or at least lined up on a row. We had the dome shape tunnel with the plastic cover that was 10x20, but again it couldn’t stand up to wind, long term. Hail, however, was great because the plastic tarp had give.

      You could do them back to back. It would take some brackets and a little handiwork, but I think it’s quite doable.

      Our local nursery uses hoop houses for their large greenhouses but the frame and plastic they use are really hefty. We’re in the midwest so we get tornado strength winds in spring and fall, but I do not see what they have to go through after storms. Reasonably sure they wouldn’t be using something they had to replace or repair several times a year.
