growing tunnel plastic.

I am presently building a lean to green house and I was thinking of covering it with fairly thick growing tunnel plastic instead of glass because the glass will work out very expensive,
I was just wondering where I could buy this type of plastic??
The frame for the greenhouse will be 12ft by 8ft and 8ft high.
Any suggestions welcome!!

If you live in the west try NCF Stores, or any farming stores.

I'm in Co. Limerick, never heard of NCF stores but we do have several co-op's here. Might give them a bell. Thanks falasarana>>>

There is a place just outside kilkenny on the callan/clonmel side (where the ploughing match was last yr), its called Highbank and thats what they sell, im sure they would be worth a call. No connection, just know that their main business is tunnells and an organic christmas tree farm when seasonal.

Hi a family member just got their hands on a disused shopping trolley steel bay (dont ask), it had five or six semi circles overhead so they decided to make a greenhouse out of it but got plastic stuff to cover it from some company in Birr who deliver for €25. Think I heard it cost €150 altogether to cover. Ill get back to you when I get their name. Maybe google company in birr.

I think that place in Birr is called Polydome, just downloaded their brochure, Thanks all. Just wondering would ordinary plastic do the same job??

NCF = North Connacht Farmers, a co-op.

Called Connaught Gold now. And they are no longer a co-op.
