Thanks! Even I've been a bit surprised by how durable the greenhouse is. It's gone throw several hurricanes, wind storms, and brutal winter storms and come out basically intact. Only Hurricane Ida last year shredded the plastic cover so I had to replace it (a video on it will be forthcoming), but the basic structure itself has been unharmed. And, yes, those clamps work really well. It's surprising how well they held the plastic on. It's notable that when Ida shredded the plastic it didn't actually rip the plastic off. The clamps held it on. Thanks for watching.

I thought about that because during the day the greenhouse does get quite warm even when the outside air is in the 30s, but during the dead of winter we routinely get 0-20F temps for stretches at a time and I wonder whether it would be effective. I've also considered building a compost bin in there and filling it with horse bedding, but I decided I didn't want to smell THAT all the time I was in there :) Besides, I do zero gardening during the winter so I decided to just let it be

We had an 8" snowfall a month or so ago, and the clips I had used to hold the plastic on popped off at the rear because they were just slightly too wide. I remade the clips, also Gorilla taped them in place, and it's holding up without a problem. Definitely a project worth tackling.

Thanks! It's held up great over the past few years, other than a few hurricanes tearing the plastic sheathing. This year I used greenhouse plastic because the price became dramatically cheaper than in the past (the one thing that's not more expensive than it was a few years ago) and it's been terrific. I haven't had a single tear in it, and that may be because the greenhouse plastic is tougher and more durable than the generic plastic sheathing I used before.

Still up and running! I use it to start seedlings in the spring, get plants up and running in the summer and fall, and dry out potatoes, onions, and garlic after harvest. The biggest issue has been the plastic cover. Hurricane season in the fall has sent more than a few tree branches flying through the plastic. We actually don't get the brunt of any hurricanes here (usually), but the wind they generate does wreak havoc on the trees. It wasn't the best location for the greenhouse, but it was the only spot I had, so I make do, and recovering it with new plastic, while annoying, is not so bad. Most of the time I'm able to repair the plastic from small holes and tears with Gorilla packing tape on the inside and out. That holds up incredibly well.

Just to verify, you used 3/4" thin wall pvc clamped over 3/4" conduit? I tried that with the thinnest pvc I could get (200 psi) and it slips snugly over the conduit but I cannot get it over the conduit with the plastic in place without tearing the plastic. I seen someplace elsewhere whereas they used a size larger (1" over 3/4") and was wondering what you thought about that.

Hi Tania. If by PVC you mean the plastic sheeting, that was just stapled in place. As for putting it on over the top, yes, I basically started on one side, secured it, and pulled it taut when I did the other side. Last year Hurricane Ida ripped the plastic to shreds. Actually, it blew tree branches through the plastic and the wind ended up tearing it the rest of the way. In this video, I give more of a step-by-step instruction of how I resheathed the top.

@@Pipalopee I had the pallet sides already joined when I wrapped them in plastic, but to be honest I don't remember if I covered the bottom as well.

@HomesteadDIY
@HomesteadDIY 9 ай бұрын
Probably about 7 ft or so. I'm 6 ft, the door opening is somewhat above that and the PVC arches sit atop that. Surprisingly I never measured it. However, you could always adjust the height to suit your needs. If you make the cut piece of conduit longer than the 32" I made mine it could increase the height. Mine is that height so the conduit gets support from the ridge beam. I've also contemplated a different roof design. Instead of angling the conduit from the top of the pallet wall, actually extend it straight up 2-3 ft, then using 45-degree fittings angle it towards the peak. That would raise the side walls up and give even more headroom. If my greenhouse was situated elsewhere (such as in the sun where I could grow plants in it), I would likely do something like that. The conduit would need more bracing support but would provide more interior options including shelving inside. Another time perhaps. :)

@HomesteadDIY 8 ай бұрын
It's held up quite well in fact. I use it every day. The biggest thing I'd do differently is site it in a different spot in my yard. Under the tree canopy as I pointed out at the time was less than optimal and falling tree limbs has been the biggest bane of my existence. With that sane, they haven't fallen and pierced the plastic really nearly as much as I thought they would have and most holes have been about the size of a quarter that I've been able to cover with Gorilla packing tape. I also would have added more shelving. Amazing how much stuff you can find to put in a greenhouse that you suddenly don't have room for. I ended up putting a second shelf under the potting bench side and I put removable slats over the drying rack to use as a hard surface until needed. Another shelf under there would have been ideal. Other than that it's served its purpose well.

You're absolutely right, I should have. There are hints though! At 0:48 in the video, there's a shot of the end wall of the greenhouse pallets. Where the two pallets meet, you can see there are three short pieces of pallet wood at the top, middle, and bottom. I just screwed them into the two pallets and that joined them together (you can also just make out similar small pieces joining the pallets on the right-hand side). I then explain later in the video (at 4:05) that I used a simple block of wood that I screwed into each side to hold them together. And last, just before that point in the video, I explain how the 1x6 decking I use on top of the pallets further ties all the sides together. I hope that helps clear that up. Cheers, and thanks for watching.

It's been holding up way better than I anticipated. I've had the odd twig or stick from the trees above fall and pierce the plastic occasionally, but I patch them up with the Gorilla packing tape inside and out and it's good to go afterwards. We've had some wicked windstorms and the entire structure remains buttoned up and secure. It's actually a nice place to go into when its raining or snowing outside. I wouldn't say the greenhouse is "warm," at least not when it's in the teens and 20s. It tends to be a degree or two above the outside temps at those times. However, when it gets into the 30s and 40s, then the greenhouse runs anywhere from 5 degrees to 20 degrees warmer inside, and I actually leave the door open during the day because I don't want the plants I'm storing to think it's spring yet. So far the plants seem to be doing good inside, but I guess the real test will be when spring does arrive and I see whether they survived.

Two woman who have NEVER done this before and we sure want to try. We have NO tools! Any suggestions on how to do this by hand without the PVC Piping? Can we just make a ceiling out of 2 by 4's? Help! We know nothing and have never built Any thing in our lives!!!

You're really setting up a challenge for yourself, aren't you? Certainly it can be built with a hammer, nails, and a hand saw, but man, you're going to be sore! :) My suggestion would be to build the two end walls first, making them in an arch-ish shape, then instead of 2x4s for the "arches," I'd use 2x2s. Instead of running them in the direction of the PVC pipes, I'd run the 2x2s straight front to back. Just nail them in from the end wall. 2 or 3 on each side of the "arch" should be sufficient (some pieces in between each row for support is recommended). That will limit your length to about 8 ft. long unless you put another wood arch-ish shape in the middle then you could make one up to 16 ft long. It's definitely a much more complicated -- and expensive -- alternative. Wood still ain't cheap these days. I won't lie, it's not going to be easy. Again, doable, but using only the most basic tools and limiting yourself to all wood, it's a much more difficult task you've set for yourself. I never want to discourage someone from trying something new and challenging, though, because you often learn best by actually doing, just go into it with eyes wide open. Cheers and good luck!

How has your greenhouse held up?

Great! I posted a follow up video showing how it handled a heavy snow load, and then the affect effects of Hurricane Irma, that did require me resheathing the plastic cover. Other than that (and the odd twig that will fall from the trees above and puncture the plastic) it is doing great and is a perfect spot for potting up plants and even growing them.

While I didn't keep track, other than the plastic, the PVC conduit, and the handful of 2x4's it was otherwise free materials or stuff I had on hand. The plastic was $26 I think at Harbor Freight Tools (and it's held up really well over the past year), the PVC was $15 maybe, probably less, and the 2x4's were probably about $20 (with the price of lumber these days it might be considerably more :/ ). The plywood I had on hand, the cladding was salvaged from my neighbor's fence, and the main structure was free pallets. Add in a box of screws and it's probably $75 total, and I think that's a stretch.
