Troubleshooting

Greenhouse cover does not fit snugly.

Ensure the frame is correctly assembled and square. Check that the cover is oriented correctly. Use the provided ropes to secure the cover tightly to the frame legs.

Zipper is stuck or difficult to open/close.

Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the teeth. A small amount of silicone lubricant can help if the zipper is stiff.

Frame appears wobbly.

Verify all frame sections are securely connected. Ensure the raised bed base is stable on the ground. Tighten any connections if possible.

Water pooling in the raised bed.

Ensure the raised bed is placed on a level surface. If drainage is an issue, consider adding a layer of gravel at the bottom of the bed before adding soil.
