plastic greenhouse
We are doing to be building a greenhouse and my husband wants our
contractor friend to build one instead of buying a kit. Can anyone recommend a book with some good plans for a greenhouse in the 12'X16' size. I thought it would be cheaper to buy a kit, but our friend says that he could do it cheaper with local materials. I'd appreciate any input from any members who have greenhouses. What kind do you have and are you happy with it, etc. Regards, June |

Below a review from above link. Eat fresh, home-grown vegetables year round? Eliminate canning and freezing? Do this all at low cost? Eliot Coleman does, you can, too, and here is the how. Coleman is a market gardener in Maine who may eat better than Bill Gates. He shows that sunlight and wind protection are more important that temperature--and, by the way, most of the U.S. gets more winter sunlight than Coleman's place. Inexpensive, unheated greenhouses that he calls tall tunnel houses--some say hoop houses--and cold frames protect from wind and keep snow off the veggies. Greenhouse comfort is more to benefit the gardener. The key is what and when to plant. Full info given for planting dates, construction details, sources of seeds, tools, greenhouses. Well illustrated. An essential guide for organic gourmands. -- Garden in shade zone 5 S Jersey USA Neat place .. http://www.petersvalley.org/ |
