Low tunnels are one of the most cost effective methods for extending the growing season in your vegetable garden in both spring and fall. Follow along as I share everything you need to know to build the best low tunnels with fully adjustable sidewalls for ventilation and the strength to resist wind and snow loads.

Here's a list of the equipment used for these low tunnels:
- 1/2 inch EMT conduit - 10 foot lengths
- hose clamps - [ Ссылка ]
- aluminum carabiners - [ Ссылка ]
- 6 mil UV resistant plastic - [ Ссылка ]
- 1/4" bungee/shock cord - [ Ссылка ]
- some 3/4" plywood scraps and a few screws for the hoop bending jig
- our wireless temperature sensors - [ Ссылка ]

As mentioned in the video, I collected temperature data from this low tunnel this fall to measure its heat trapping and insulating abilities. You can now find a summary of that data on our Field Journal page here: [ Ссылка ]

To extend your growing season as long as possible, you'll also need to know the temperature tolerance of each of your vegetable crops which can vary significantly. I teach this subject in detail in my Seed to Table course.
