We will wrap our new wicking beds with some old metal roofing. (dark brown, but we could paint it or use the back side) that we have on hand and put treated boards along the top to cap it off.

Hubs wants to put reflectics or insulation behind the metal to help with heat and maybe help with freezing in the winter months. There will be a slight air gap from the metal cages, but that could be increased by attaching 1 x lumber along the top and bottom to screw the metal to. I’m thinking just screw the metal to the cages and move on. Budget is a factor.

Thoughts on whether insulating would be worth it?
