Here is the condo we use for the state fair plants. LOL!! we picked this up pretty reasonable and is an absolutely wonderful tool for the fair plants. Very simple to put together..Marc and I can throw this up in prolly 10 minutes and it is very very durable with the nylon reinforced preformed plastic covering. Yes the covering does have a pretty heavy opaque look to it, and we were concerned that it might not be what we were looking for, BUT last year the plants responded well inside so it was a winner. It came with a second brand new cover for the metal frame and I seriously doubt we'll ever need it. Inside we have the heated cables and the spot covered with Polly and then use a couple real small thermostatically controled space heaters to ward off the real nasty early season cold nights. Always warm and toasty inside. The Opaque plastic actualy diminishes the real hot sunny days to the point where we don't have to even worry about over heating the plants. It's tall enough that the real hot stuff hangs out up and away from the plants themselves. Also real nice to beable to "walk" in and do the work inside verses all those years of struggling on hands and knees under a small low profile standard hut we used to use.
