sorry for the blurred pic...my camera has been acting up.
Here is my little greenhouse at home....made out of a carport, plastic (used about 60% of a 100X20 ft roll of 3 mil, cost $60 for the roll), duct tape (made for hanging poly and tarps), shade cloth (tethered with string to pavers to keep it secure)and nursery staples to secure the plastic at the bottom to the ground.
I put a box fan and a space heater in there..and seems to work fine...I'm curious how well it would work if temps got below 25F?
the main problem is the wind!!! it gets me so agitated and angry it's hard to describe. I never used to get worked up about strong winds...until I started growing cold sensitive plants that need protection!
I'm going to have to get more of those heavy duty nursery staples to secure the bottom of the plastic...the wind keeps pulling up the small crappy staples (6 inch or so from Home depot, instead of the usual 10 inch heavy duty ones).
here's the pic...notice the plants pressed up against the greenhouse...this helps hold everything in place..and actually keeps the plants outside of the greenhouse warmer....my row of grimals with flowers emerging now didn't seem to mind the cold at all.
