After the ‘gale’ winds on the plateau, we found it was necessary to pin the ground cover down every 18 inches.
Pads are reinforced
OOPS… 50 MPH Winds
So I was on high when the ground cover was down… then the front came through, “the Non-Silent Storm” ! The pyrotechnics sitting on the hill top are amazing, the calm before, cool winds, the lightning strikes, then it arrived!
50 MPH winds, torrential rains, then there was the dawn…
“Hello World”… once evaluating the damage, the pins to hold the ground cover need to be 12″ to 18” apart to take on that kind of wind!
Pads are In
Had D&J Tractor lay the foundation for three pads (20′ by 100′). Joey did a great job! Now it’s time to cover the pads with greenhouse woven ground cover. This is definitely a job for more than one person if the wind is blowing more than just a slight breeze else you’ll be ground parasailing.
