Can you get part of a cheep steel frame somewhere?
I used the frame of a portable garage.
You see many around your area?
There are lots of them around here with the covers wrecked.
If you see one ask to purchase the frame.
Get a cheap frame and tape 6ml poly to it like I did.
Did you see the assembly?
We had a couple terrible storms.
One almost demoed our gazebo.
But the greenhouse never had a problem.
Just a thought. :Namaste:
Hope you are well my friend.

The problem is the poles are flimsy. :Namaste:
If you screw it to the concrete you can brace the existing frame with wood.
Make it sturdy and unmoveable.
Diagonal cross braces.

I don't like to dome seedlings.
It makes them weak and soft.
If you can I would remove it.
See how she does after half hour then 2 hours.
If she is ok leave her.
What's your rh?

36 is low if that's the true number.

If she starts to wilt cover her again and try again tomorrow.

No a small area with a wet towel sometimes helps. Ie greenhouse. :rofl: or tent.
Sorry :Namaste:
If you get her used to it, harden her off.
She will be ok till she moves.
