How do I build a low tunnel?
Push Kwik Hoops into the bed 3 to 5 ft apart, drape your cover over them, pin it to the hoop tabs, then gather each end and anchor it with a U-stake. Pin the long edges with staples or weigh them down.
Which cover do I need?
InsectaNet for insects, shade cloth for summer heat, clear poly for cold, and germination netting laid flat to help direct-seeded crops come up.
How many U-stakes do I need?
Two per tunnel, one at each end.
Can I get help paying for hoops?
Kwik Hoops are eligible for NRCS EQIP cost-share in most states. Check with your local NRCS office.
About our crop protection
Low tunnels let market gardeners control the conditions over a bed without a greenhouse. Kwik Hoops hold a cover over a 30 in bed; the cover does the work, whether that's keeping insects out, cutting heat, trapping warmth or holding moisture at the surface. U-stakes and stainless landscape staples keep everything pinned down in the wind.
