    I’m delighted with my Cultivar greenhouse. It’s beautifully engineered and I’m sure would withstand abnormal winds IMG_2109.jpeg

      Very smart greenhouses @kindredspirit and @BenCotto
      I have a Hercules Blenheim which is supposed to be strong. But I wish I'd got one with half walls like you two, as most things I grow in pots on staging.
      I once had a hex greenhouse and we had a storm. I only realised it had moved a couple of inches on the concrete slab when I noticed the electric supply box bolted to the frame was now at a distinct angle relative to the input cable! Nothing broke - the wind must have just shifted it wholesale! We added bolts to hold it to the concrete after that.
