If you have five months of snow, you'll need to heat it during the
winter. I built one for my wife, it's 12' x 14' and is stuck on the
south end of our house. We're just north of Baltimore, Maryland.
During the winter, it gets up to 80 degrees F during a sunny day but
would chill way down at night or on a cloudy day without a heater.

I ran a 220 line out there for heat. She keeps it at 50 degrees F
during the winter and I figured that costs us about $300 in extra
electricity each year. She enjoys gardening in the snow so much that
the extra expense is worth it.

You may want to consider a cold frame instead of a greenhouse. Our
cold frame is a box about 3' high and 14' long with clear plastic
doors on top. This lets the sun heat it up in the early spring for
starting seedlings to get a jump on the planting season.
