The type of greenhouse I built is intended to prevent fruit flies, and few other types of insects, from getting to the plants. I think the main reason why most of the tomatoes you see for sale locally are green is that fruit flies don't attack them until they start to turn yellow/red. The covering of the greenhouse is only a fine mesh netting. It let's rain and wind in, but keeps the bugs out.

During a several year project in which I've been trying, with limited success, to grow beef steak tomatoes, I developed a super simply way to build a green house. Be glad to show anyone interested how to do it. I tried to attach pictures but the system said my files were too big to process. Let me know if you're interested.
