Cover Assembly
The Upper and Lower Covers each have two zippered windows. For the best ventilation, we recommend orienting the Covers so
that you end up with one window on each of the four sides of your raised bed. Note the position of the windows in Figures 3 and 4.
Step 8.
Orient the Lower Cover so that the zippered door hinges are on the bottom. The doors should be positioned so that they are
opposite the curved sides of the frame (Figure 3). Tie the upper corner of one end of the cover to a corner of the assembled frame
(Figure 3). Tie the bottom corner of the cover to the bottom corner of the frame, just above the raised bed corner.
Step 9.
Wrap the Lower Cover around the frame, attaching it with ties at the corners and along the horizontal Long Tubes (Figure 3).
Firmly adhere the hook-and-loop strips at the corner where the two ends meets.
Step 10.
Place the Upper Cover over the top of the frame
with the zippered windows in the curved ends of the
frame (Figure 4). Align the hook-and-loop sections
on the Upper and Lower Covers and fasten together.
Assembly is complete!
Using the Grow Shelter
Each zippered window has two sets of ribbon ties
sewn into the hinged side. Use these to tie the rolled-up
windows in place when they're unzipped.
To allow pollinating insects into your Grow Shelter,
unzip the insect screens on warm, sunny days when your
plants are blooming.
Important:
Open both upper windows for ventilation
on sunny days to prevent excessive heat build up. Unzip all
windows for maximum ventilation.
Important:
The Grow Shelter cover is not designed to
withstand a load of snow or ice. Please remove the cover
prior to wintery weather.
