Great idea but there must be some variation in the precise sizes of pipe and/or fittings becuase 25mm MDPE pipe would not fit into the kit I received (much too tight) but reaming and drilling rendered them a suitably tight, but viable, fit.

Just purchased the mini polytunnel. Tube connectors and supports are excellent. The tight fit of the tubing gives great support and structure to the tunnel. highly recommended

This is an excellent product, I watched the instruction Youtube and got assistance with the timber frame as my bed was on the large side. We cut the water pipe to size and the connectors fitted easily. If you measure correctly and follow the instructions you should be very pleased with the result. I plan to exchange my micromesh Summer cover for polytunnel plastic to allow me extend the growing season in my beds. I had previously experimented with all types of DIY cloche covers and none were as successful. This product allows me to make a bespoke cover for my own raised beds irrespective of size. Then if you are not confident of the skills required to master the project you can also purchase one in kit form to fit some of the companies own braised beds. Well done.

I need an 8x4ft mini polytunnel connector kit only.can you give me the total price please.?

Answered by Niall
on August 31st, 2020

I am afraid we only supply the tubing and supports at present for the 8ft mini polytunnels. We are not in a position to supply the wood for the surround of the unit Niall Quickcrop

Asked By Raymond Fox
on July 27th, 2020

Hi What component parts do I require (not including wood) for a raised bed measuring 5.5ft x 5ft?.Please

Answered by Andrew
on July 30th, 2020

Hi Raymond. I am afraid I think a 5 foot span may be a little unwieldy for the mini poly tunnel system and would recommend 4ft wide max. If you did want to try it you would need 4 corner brackets, 2 centre brackets and 3 x tube connectors (the same as a 6x4) but would need longer tubing, approx lengths of 1.5m. I hope this helps. Andrew

Answered by Andrew

Asked By Janet

I have some raised beds would like to use this system but they are 1metr by 1 metre what would I need to build a cover

Answered by Niall
on May 16th, 2020

Hi Janet You would just need 4 of the corner supports and 2 of the cross top supports along with the piping. You would have to source the wood locally as we don't have it cut to that size i am afraid Niall Quickcrop

Asked By Barry Carter
on May 02nd, 2020

Do you supply an 8 x 4 full kit please ? and if sow hat is the cost please?

Answered by Niall
on May 02nd, 2020

Hi Barry We supply the kit without the wood as we can't transport the longer lengths of timber. This kit is on the website to buy Niall Quickcrop

Asked By Georgia Crawford
on May 01st, 2020

The Quickcrop mini poly tunnel - does that include the wood for the base or just the pipes ad connectors? Georgia

Answered by Niall
on May 01st, 2020

Hi Georgia Just the connectors i am afraid. There is also a full kit there with everything if you want it. Niall Quickcrop

Asked By Sanj
on April 30th, 2020

Hi Quickcrop My Raised Veg Bed is 250cm * 90cm (approx. 8ft * 3ft). Can you kindly recommend exactly what components I would need to construct the kit? I'm looking at the ready made & cannot see anything that suits. Can you recommend a 'made to measure' kit? I do not require any timber frame, just components, tube & mesh covering

Answered by Niall
on April 30th, 2020

Hi Sanj You will need 3 of the corner brackets, 4 of the centre brackets and 3 of the top tube connectors. 11 pieces of the piping and enough mesh to cover in total. We recommend the 6m x 3.6m pack which is more than you need but the best one to make sure it goes on well Niall Quickcrop

Asked By Kevin O Donovan
on April 23rd, 2020

Hi Joe, I am building some raised beds using old railway sleepers, the dimensions of the beds (x2) will be 16feet long by 8 feet wide, what would you recommend to build to cover both raised beds? I dont really want to put 4 covers on each raised bed?

Answered by Niall
on April 23rd, 2020

Hi Kevin I am afraid this system will not cover a bed of that span and i don't think we have any system that will cover that width of bed. Sorry i can't be of more help on this matter. Niall Quickcrop

Asked By Joe O’ Connell
on April 19th, 2020

Hi Niall, We have 8ft X 4ft Raised beds, will your 8ft option cover this totally? Joe

Answered by Niall
on April 19th, 2020

Hi Joe They will indeed however the 8ft option does not include the boards only the fixings piping and poly cover Niall Quickcrop

Asked By Phil
on August 13th, 2019

How wide is the 8ft kit, I am looking for 8x4. cheers Phil.

Answered by Niall
on August 13th, 2019

Hi Phil If you go down further on the product page you will see what is included in the 8ft kit. The wood or piping is not supplied only the connectors and washers plus screws so you can make it to whatever width you want Niall Quickcrop

Asked By Rachel
on August 09th, 2019

Can the Black 25mm piping be used instead of blue? I've googled everything I can thing of to see what the difference is and all anyone mentions is blue for potable, black for non-potable. I wondered if you used the blue because it was stronger or bendier or for some other reason.

Answered by Niall
on August 09th, 2019

Hi Rachel As far as i am aware the internal dimensions on the black piping are not the same as the blue piping which means that it is to flexible and as a result not as strong in high winds which is one of the main purposes of the Mini Polytunnels. I can understand why visually you might not want the blue piping in your garden however it is the best we have come across for the job in hand Niall Quickcrop

Asked By Keith
on April 03rd, 2019

How you add to order extra centre fittings etc.

Answered by Niall
on April 04th, 2019

Hi Keith If you go back in to the Mini polytunnel section on the website there is a Mini Polytunnel Quick Picker button which will allow you buy the parts on their own. Regards Niall Quickcrop

Asked By John Griffin
on March 18th, 2019

Hi Niall, The external diameter of the pipe i have is 30mm the internal diameter is 25mm. No amount of hot water will make that fit in a 25mm hole. I can send you a photo of the two side by side.

Answered by Niall
on March 19th, 2019

Hi John As far as we were aware there was only 25mm blue piping on the market but it is definitely the 25mm external dimensions that are required. Anything wider will not fit Niall Quickcrop

Asked By John Griffin
on March 17th, 2019

Hi Niall, I bought 16 corner pieces, they are not as you said below. They are for a pipe with external diameter of 25mm. I had a roll of blue pipe inch pipe (25mm internal diameter). Maybe you could supply a diagram with dimensions, it would help others in the future?

Answered by Niall
on March 18th, 2019

Hi John This is the same Piping if it is the blue one you have. It is a tight fit and the piping needs to be put in hot water before forcing in to the corner pieces. They are purposely tight so that they don't pop out in strong winds but you have the right piping Niall Quickcrop

Asked By John Griffin
on March 11th, 2019

Are the connectors for 25mm internal diameter pipe?

Answered by Niall
on March 12th, 2019

Hi John Thats right Regards Niall Quickcrop

Asked By Chiara
on March 03rd, 2019

Hi there, can somebody tell me the mesurements of these great kits?

Answered by Niall
on March 04th, 2019

Hi Chiara The kit you are looking at is just the kit without the wood so you can make it to whatever size you want however they would be recommended to be made around 6ft x 3ft (2m x 1m) Regards Niall Quickcrop

Asked By Tim Coombe
on July 20th, 2018

Is the blue piping included?

Answered by Andrew
on July 23rd, 2018

Hi Tim. The connector kit includes the brackets only and is for those who wish to source their own tubing and timber. We also do a kit including wood and timber which can be found in the mini polytunnel section on our website.

Asked By Liz

Hi My beds are 2 feet wide and 8 feet long what length of blue pipe would be required for these beds and would I need 4 hoops rather than 3? Thanks

Answered by Niall
on April 04th, 2018

You will need 4 hoops Liz and 11 x 1.2m pieces of the Blue piping Regards Niall Quickcrop

Asked By andy burnside
on May 02nd, 2017

do you supply extension kits for longer polytunnels? or do i need to buy 2 or 3 kits?

Answered by Andrew
on May 03rd, 2017

I am afraid we don't supply extension kits however there is no reason why you can't run one unit in to the other and just use one cover.

Asked By Pepper

Hi, do you ship to U.S or have distributors for this product in the U.S? Thanks.

Hi Pepper. I am afraid we don't currently ship to the US, sorry!

Asked By Colin
on November 03rd, 2016

Hi On a 4ft x 4ft raised bed what lengths of pipe would I need.

Answered by Andrew
on November 04th, 2016

Hi Colin. The length of pipe you will need are the standard 120cm lengths.

Asked By David fountain
on April 14th, 2016

I have beds of 4m x1200mm wide I would like to make one cover would it work and what do I need to buy

Answered by Andrew
on April 15th, 2016

Hello, A mini polytunnel of that length might be too unwieldy, 2 standard mini tunnel kits would fit it and be easier to use and maintain.

Asked By Richard Smith
on January 07th, 2016

Hello, what is the minimum width that you would recommend for the tunnel kit - I have a narrow spot that I would like to use it on but not sure at what point the pipe would fold rather than bend?

Answered by Andrew
on January 08th, 2016

Hi Richard. Unless the bed was very narrow I can't see you would have a problem. I have just tested a 1m length in the warehouse and had to cross it over before I could get it to fold so am confident it will work for your application. I hope this helps. Andrew

Asked By Johanna
on March 17th, 2015

Hi, looks like a solution to my problem, Query, in one of the photos it appears you are not using timber for the frame, would perfer this option as it would be lighter, is it piping? Can you explain. Regards

Asked By Johanna
on March 17th, 2015

Hi, looks like a solution to my problem, I was trying to invent my own version, then saw yours. Query, in one of the photos it appears you are not using timber for the frame, would perfer this option as it would be lighter, is it piping? Can you explain. Regards

Answered by Andrew
on March 18th, 2015

Hi Johanna. Sorry if the photo is misleading but we use timber for all the frames, the plastic is just rolled at the end so conceals the timber behind.

Asked By Dennis Moules
on March 10th, 2015

HI Andrew I constructed the same sort of mini covering in the polytunnel this winter for my crops and was thanking off doing the same thing for one outdoor main bed to protect my cabbage and cauliflower com the butterflies. The bed is 9x18 feet could you tell me how much kit I would need and a rough cost. Regards Dennis

Answered by Andrew
on March 11th, 2015

Hi Dennis. I figure you will probably be better splitting the bed in 2 as 9ft is a very wide span. I'd make 2 tunnels 4.5 foot wide by 9 ft long. You will need 2 basic kits @ €24.95 each plus 2 extension kits @ €8.95 each. Total €42.95.

Asked By Tessa Weaver
on March 10th, 2015

What diameter piping does this kit take to make the hoops?

Answered by Andrew
on March 10th, 2015

The pipe you need is 25mm blue water pipe. We will have it on the site by the end of the week but it is also available in most good builders merchants. You may need to buy a full roll from the hardware shop while we will supply in the 3 and 4 ft lengths.
