Greenhouse ventilation massively improved thanks to the storm. Recovered some panels but not all. What a faff.

oof, bad luck.

Makes me realise when I set my polytunnel up, should the curved sides face prevailing winds or the ends (could open them to allow through flow of wind on storm days)

My low tunnel(about chest high at apex) is perpendicular to the prevailing wind, it survived the storm no trouble but partially sheltered.
Main trick seems to be not letting any wind get underneath it. We put a 10” berm of woodchip all the way around ours which appears to have protected it
