My thoughts are to align it east-west (that is the longest sides) so you
harvest as much sunlight in winter as possible.

Thanks Richard - I thought maybe that but I wondered if it'd get TOO hot
out of winter times - I guess that wouldn't matter, huh, with the humidity
it'd create?


I have had people cover the structure with shade cloth in summer then put
the plastic cover over that in winter. It really depends what you want to
grow. Plastic and lime wouldn't appeal to me.

Cheers
