• Greenhouse cover (Polyethylene/PE film)
• 4 stakes
• 4 guy ropes

Setup and Assembly

Follow these steps to assemble your Ohuhu Greenhouse:

1. Prepare the Area: Choose a level, clear area for your greenhouse. Ensure it is free from debris and has good drainage.
2. Assemble the Base Frame: Connect the shortest poles using the plastic connectors to form the rectangular base of the greenhouse. Ensure all connections are secure.
3. Build the Vertical Supports: Attach the vertical poles to the base connectors. Gradually build up the side frames, connecting poles with connectors as shown in the diagrams (refer to images PT03 and PT04).
4. Install Shelves: Once the frame for a section is complete, place the wire shelves onto the designated supports. Ensure they sit securely. Repeat for all 11 shelves.
5. Construct the Roof Frame: Assemble the roof poles and connectors, then attach them to the top of the vertical supports.
6. Drape the Cover: Carefully drape the polyethylene cover over the assembled frame. Ensure the zippered door is positioned correctly at the front.
7. Secure the Cover: Pull the cover down firmly. The bottom edges of the cover should extend beyond the base frame. Press these extra edges with heavy objects like stones or bricks to enhance stability and wind resistance.
8. Anchor the Greenhouse: Use the provided 4 stakes and 4 guy ropes. Attach the ropes to the designated points on the greenhouse frame and secure them to the ground with the stakes. This is crucial for wind stability.

Operating Instructions

Proper operation ensures optimal plant growth and extends the life of your greenhouse.

• Using the Roll-up Zippered Door: Unzip the door completely and roll it up, securing it at the top with the ties provided. This allows for easy access and ventilation. Zip it down to close and maintain internal temperature and humidity.
• Utilizing Screen Windows: The greenhouse features three screen windows (one top, two side) with full velcro. Open these windows to improve ventilation and regulate internal temperature, especially on warm days. They also help block small animals.

• Greenhouse Film Tape Application: The included repair tape is for mending tears or holes in the polyethylene cover.
  1. Clean and dry the area around the tear.
  2. Cut a piece of tape slightly larger than the damaged area.
  3. Apply the tape firmly over the tear, ensuring no air bubbles. For best results, apply tape to both sides of the film if accessible.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance will prolong the life of your greenhouse.

• Cleaning: Periodically clean the polyethylene cover with mild soap and water to remove dirt and algae, which can reduce light transmission. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
• Frame Inspection: Regularly check all frame connections and connectors for tightness and signs of wear or damage. Tighten any loose connections.
• Cover Inspection: Inspect the cover for any tears, punctures, or weak spots. Use the provided repair tape promptly to mend any damage to maintain the greenhouse's integrity and climate control.
• Anchoring Check: After strong winds or heavy rain, verify that the stakes and guy ropes are still securely anchored and the base weights are in place.
• Winter Preparation: While the cover is freeze-resistant, in areas with heavy snowfall, it is advisable to gently brush off accumulated snow to prevent excessive weight on the frame.

Troubleshooting

Here are solutions to common issues you might encounter:

• Greenhouse unstable in wind:
  • Ensure all 4 stakes and 4 guy ropes are properly installed and taut.
  • Place heavy objects (e.g., large stones, sandbags, bricks) on the extended bottom edges of the cover to weigh it down.
  • Consider additional anchoring methods for extremely windy locations, such as securing the frame directly to the ground with ground anchors (not included).
• Tears or holes in the cover:
  • Use the provided greenhouse repair tape. Clean the area, cut a suitable piece of tape, and apply it firmly over the damage.
• Poor ventilation/High humidity:
  • Open the roll-up zippered door and the three screen windows to increase airflow.
  • Ensure plants are not overcrowded.
