    To repair a polycarbonate greenhouse, a plastic part was needed. I decided to cut it out with a thick plastic jigsaw. From friction, the file got very hot and melted the plastic. Before starting a new attempt, I dropped a few drops of engine oil onto the saw blade. Sawing became easier, the process went much faster, and the edges turned out to be smoother.

    I had to change the polycarbonate in the greenhouse - it “bloomed”. Now the husband wants to fill the sections at the ends with a sealant. In what weather should this be done? Indeed, in warm weather there is more moisture in the air than in frost, will condensation fall out?

      I swore to put polycarbonate without end protection. No matter how you close it from moisture, condensation still forms, algae actively multiply in it, and insects take in. And as a result, the light transmittance drops dramatically over several years. Having bought a good expensive polycarbonate for the new greenhouse, I decided to decorate the ends according to science. All the ends were sealed with a special self-adhesive perforated tape, and a U-shaped profile was installed on top. It protects the tape from mechanical damage. Result: 5 years - normal flight!
