Have you checked your local Home Depot, Lowes or Agway? Other than that you can check out these links:
SOLEXX Corrugated/Insulated Plastic Panels: http://fishstoretn.com/corrugated_in..._plastic_.html EnviroCept Company: http://www.greenhouses-etc.net/glazi...e_covering.htm Insulated polycarbonate panels: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q...=Google+Search To me they seem expensive, I'd think about using some doubled up poly tarps at 4 mils thickness. A 10'x25' (4 mils) is available at Home Depot for less than $14.00 per package. Robin

polycarbonate pannels
I would look for a commercial greenhouse supplier. I use Waldos Greenhouse Supply out of Toledo Oh,may be Perrysburg OH. Poly panels are not cheap - relative. I have used poly sheating, uv treated, comes with 4 yr guarantee, and seems to last 4 to 7 years deepending on how many creates try to climb up it - cats usually.

Finally ordered 5 x 4'X8' 4mm twinwall poly panels from Farmtek.
Going to building a lean-to greenhouse. dcarch
