6 TESTIMONY Some of our clients comment I am very very happy with Tunnel Flex on all my vegetables and strawberries, I was still picking strawberries in mid-november and I am in Saskatchewan. That s the way to go, we got big winds and it doesn t affect my TunnelFlex, just little bend but it destroyed all my high tunnel. - Charles Sudom Regina, Sasketchewan Early tomato plants are doing well in Tunnel Flex. On cool nights, row cover can be easily installed for added frost protection. - Dan Sheedy Cobden, Ontario The product is built really well...great product and I am very happy with it! Looking forward to purchasing another kit. - JC Great product, had an extreme wind test (> 110 km/h) after 60mm of rain and was able to fully recover my tunnels with only minor damage - wish I could say the same for my greenhouse. Strawberry production in tunnels far exceeds production without; highly recommend this product. - Chuck Bass F I N D U S Contact your dealer
