Greenhouse ideas, or instruction

Post by Arctic Palm »

Tis the time of year when the W word starts to stress me out. The W word being WINTER. Hurts to say. Anyway, if anyone has any great ideas or pics of greenhouses they have built post post post.

I don't know about everone else but I want to get a jump on things.

Thanks....

I'll go the enclosure route with mulch and a thermostat heaters...

Here in Z6 (for my windmills) the enclosures will be used starting around early December.

SO what kind of heaters do you use and what temps do you keep them set at?

protection for windmills

I use ceramic heater's and heat bulb's...

Temp will be set to come on when the temps drop below a few degrees below 32F..@ nite...

I'll try and maintain these temps but it will be a fight come early January or so...especially when we get a snap...
