So, what’s the general feeling on those plastic popup greenhouses?

After a particularly rough month with my plants I am considering getting a popup style plastic greenhouse for my plants.

I am kinda hoping that it would help to keep the moisture up and the shade up since a like half dozen of my peppers just got sunrot.

I have noticed my plants under my bug netting do better and my pepper plant in the ground under it doesn’t have sunrot. I think it would also let me keep my pots longer in fall since in in zone 7 and cold snaps happen.

So… Any thoughts? Tips? Etc?

    The extra material/weight needed for the same/better strength in PVC becomes an advantage vs wind. The fittings do seem expensive until you compare the cost to 3D print equivalents. Any joints you don’t want to wobble, you cement.

    She was joking about putting a cot in it, after shelving and plants, and yeah, it seemed roomy enough to me.
