Assuming that you've already chosen the perfect spot to place your small PVC greenhouse, here is a step-by-step guide on how to build a simple PVC house of your own.
Here is a list of the required materials.
Iron Frame Beds
1. Zip ties
2. Nails/screws
3. Metal bands
4. Door hinges and door handles
5. (50) 4' wood lathe
6. (34) 1/2"x24"-30"pieces of rebar (lengths somewhere in this range are fine).
7. (19) 1/2"x20' PVC pipes.
8. (14) 2x4 - 12' sections of raming lumber.
9. (2) 2x6 - 12' sections of framing lumber.
10. (4) 2x6 - 16' sections of framing lumber.
First Step: Prepare The Framework
Using the 2x6s to put together a 12'x32' frame. Make sure that it is in the form of a square. You can keep the square in place by putting a 30" piece of rebar in each corner.
Second Step: Add Hoops
Put the rebar in the ground on the outside of the frame. Put it about 15" into the ground and keep 15" sticking up out of the ground.
Third Step: PVC Pipes Over Rebar
Slide both ends of the PVC pipes over the rebar pieces to make a hoop across the entire width of the greenhouse. Screw the PVC pipes attached to the wood by using metal banding around the pipes.
Fourth Step: Preparing The Ends
Cut the 12' 2x4s into the following pieces:
(2) 11'8 3/4"
(4) 4'7"
(4) 1'6"
(4) 5'7"
(8) 1'11 1/4"
(2) 4'1/4"
The 5'7" pieces should stand up and form a door. The 4'1/4" runs across the 5'7" door. The (2) 4'7" and the 1'11 1/4" serves as reinforcement and looks like a smaller door on both sides of the large center 5'7" door. The 1'6" and the 1'11 1/4" looks like an even smaller door and serves as extra reinforcement as well.
Take two PVC pipes that are 32' long and run it across the hoops. This will form ribs for the hoop greenhouse. Tie the 32' PVC pipe to the ribs of the hoop using zip ties.
Fifth Step: Covering The Greenhouse in Plastic
Drape a sturdy 4 mil plastic over the length of the greenhouse with overlap at the ends in order to cover the end walls. Use wood lathe or staples to keep the plastic in place.
Sixth Step:
Build a door frame by cutting the 12' 2x4s and place it in the frame of the 4'1/4" mad 5'7" door space. Attach a hinge and cover this door in plastic as well. Attach door handles to the door and mount it to the frame.
And there you have it... a PVC greenhouse. This is the simplest of all backyard greenhouse designs to build but they do the trick quite well in my experience. Happy green-housing!
