Today I built hoop-house over 4x16ft raised bed. I have sown radishes, dill, cilantro, beets, fenugreeek, spinach, and carrots. I used 10ft, 1/2" metal conduits pipes for hoopbends and 1ft 3/4" conduits for inserts. Here are some pics with little description;
I made DIY conduit bender from used pallet and some screws, it was so simple and easy to bend conduits. To make perfect half circle for the 4ft wide beds, I marked 22in at one end of the conduit where bend begins, then pull it over rest of the screws to make it half circle;
Inside picture of the hoophouse shows 3/4in inserts, I just inserted 1/2 conduits in it, this helps to remove the conduits easily when I need to for tilling;
Outside picture shows how I secured the row cover with 2x2 lumber and I put few pegs to held it on the raised bed's edge. I can easily remove them for watering and weeding;
