Does anybody else find that bubble wrap is a real pain to install? For my 7'
x 7' greenhouse it takes a day's work every second year, and the bubble
wrap, which I buy in huge rolls, never overlaps enough, (just 1 cm wider
would do), so, as well as the plastic clips, I have to use yards/metres of
Duck Tape to get around the angles where the roof meets the walls and where
the edges of the bubble wrap don't quite meet. The clips work fine but
there are bits of the greenhouse where they can't be used. There must be a
better way. Can one buy the sort of double-glazed skin that the Eden
Project uses, I wonder.
I suppose you could make up a set of wooden frames to fix the bubblewrap to.
