If you can get the stuff installed when you need it and remove it when you don't, and you don't damage it then it may be worth the extra cost.

I just spent $182 on proper greenhouse poly that is the right stuff and should last 4 years. I was using the cheap construction plastic at $30-40 a season so financially this 4 year stuff is costing me more. But I was sick and tired of replacing the non-uv stuff.

This is my first post however I have read many post. I have a HFGH bought last Febuary. With pic from this forum I was able to put it together . That said I have a question. I accuired a swimming pool insulation cover. I would like your opion on putting it on . Will it be to heavy when we get our usual ice storms here (Texas)? Also I have read many posts about electric heat. What about propane. Robby

Well..I dont want to use a pool cover and the UV bubble wrap is expensive. I read about putting it up with the two sided tape and my husband laughed and said "how are you going to use that tape in a humid greenhouse ?" Seems that may be a good question.

I know some folk do use the bubble wrap..I wonder if anyone has experience with both the UV and other.

I don't know anything personally about using the bubble wrap insulation, but Turner Greenhouses sells it and I think they have a spray-on adhesive for applying it directly to either plastic or poly coverings.

Thank you....I bit the bullet and ordered some from Charleys...foil for the north wall and bubble for the roof. I found some of the velcro on clearance at Lowes and since the greenhouse people said that theirs was not a special kind...that saved me a few dollars.
