The Quickcrop mini tunnel kit is a DIY kit for building a sturdy and long lasting mini polytunnel frame. Mini polytunnel frames can be covered with poly to make a mini greenhouse or covered with an insect excluding mesh to protect against pests like cabbage and carrot root fly.
Mini polytunnels can be fixed to raised beds to create a compact growhouse, fixed to the ground with our peg system or used inside a full sized tunnel to create a heat retaining double glazing effect.
Our kits use pressure treated timber for the frame and thick plastic tubing to create the structure. The clever bit is our unique fixing system for attaching the frame together, securing the tubular supports and fixing the poly or mesh to the frame.
You can easily build a tunnel in 30 mins which will last you for many years. These tunnels are not to be confused with inferior ready made products which will only last for 1 or 2 seasons.
