What thickness of hoop house tunnel plastic is best?
-
Choosing the right thickness for a hoop house tunnel plastic cover matters a lot. According to Greenhouse Cover, their hoop house / poly plastic option is made at 6 mil thickness. This thickness offers a reliable balance: itβs durable enough to withstand heavy rain and wind, and strong UV-resistance helps it last through seasons. For year-round use you want something at least this thick, because thinner film tends to tear, lose heat, or degrade faster. Opting for a custom-cut width and proper installation also helps ensure your hoop house stays stable and your plants are better protected.
