No problems. http://www.mcconkeyco.com/page.aspx?nid=27<br /><br />The plastic I was using is 100'x50' I think; i don't recall exactly. It's not cheap, but after 2 years it still looks good and is standing up well. No slits or holes other than caused by errant pigs.Bruce Kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10995706761794063165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1842136564899097734.post-47642165231109396222010-09-09T18:33:12.058-07:002010-09-09T18:33:12.058-07:00Mike, funny you should ask.

I have had pretty good use out of 6 mil construction plastic in the past, in fact I have some on structures now that are more than a year old and still holding. But the roll I bought in June lasted about a month and a half and is now so brittle it crumbles if you ball it up.<br /><br />The roll also had small slits on the folds right out of the box.<br /><br />I have been using 6 mil for years, I generally get 18 months if it is in full sun.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1842136564899097734.post-51809496456249027352010-09-09T16:55:25.896-07:002010-09-09T16:55:25.896-07:00What kind of cover did you use on your greenhouse ...What kind of cover did you use on your greenhouse and how long has it lasted? We used 6mil husky brand cover plastic and it hasn't even lasted the season. It has cracked on blown off. It became very brittle after a month of hot sun.Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01432170922105438643noreply@blogger.com
