My new greenhouse from Harbor Freight collapsed in a light breeze last Tuesday

I spent $150 on that thing and set it up in my backyard in Denver, thinking it would protect my seedlings. The whole frame just folded over like a cheap tent when the wind picked up, and now my tomato starts are all over the lawn. Anyone in a windy area have a better suggestion for a starter greenhouse that won't just give up?

Built my own with cattle panels and heavy plastic sheeting. Those prefab kits just can't handle real wind. It's more work upfront but holds up great.

Wow, I always bought kits but @linda_clark just changed my mind about building my own!
