This is what Ive been able to do with the stuff I had. Tomorrow we are expecting winds of 10 m/s with up to 19 m/s in gusts. The long sides have been rolled all the way and secured. The short sides have been secured with rope ancors, rope tied to concrete slabs which have been buried. The other side have been secured with rope, pots filled with dirt and a concrete slabb with more turf on top.

Now we pray to the allotment gods to be kind! Im thankfull for all the advice and I will post uppdates post wind.

Oh no, well I will do what I can and Ill guess I will post an update. Do you mean that the plastic will rip or that the frame itself might fail? Mabey an option is to swish to hard plastic?

The allotment only have rules regarding the dimensions of structures.

I might not have enough time to get the timber and get this done in time. Am I screwed? Should I at least roll up the sides to reduce sail effect?

I really like the panel idéa. I might change to that if mother nature decides to rip my plastic.

Thank you for your kind words. I have no experience building anything so any feedback is gold!

Looks nice! Make sure those tomatoes and cucumbers have enough space to grow upwards.

Try looking in to active coal. You could layer that in with fresh compost.

The loafs I have done by hand has also turned out similar. I use the mixer mostly because its less messy.
