It helps to insulate the lower outside walls of GReenhouse to retain heat. Maybe not south side. I do North and west side. Early in the season I also divide my Greenhouse in half using Greenhouse plastic or even clear shower curtains. This is so I’m only heating half my GReenhouse until I either need the whole thing for plants or until night time temps are warm enough.

For best results, extend the perimeter insulation a couple of feet down into the ground

Interesting information on temperature differential. I think that temperature differential was one of my problems during the winter. I had poor heating which caused big swings in temperature from day to night. I didn't expect so much useful information in this greenhouse video. Spectacularly insightful content, as usual!

FYI-that looks exactly like one of my greenhouses, a 6*8ft that I paid 580ish for from home depot. It's on its 3rd year and it is a fantastic affordable unit. Strap it down well if you get wind because the whole thing will up and land in Oz if you don't. I actually purchased another just like it only it's a 10*20ft.

I love your greenhouse! So exciting that you have that space to use right now in April😍 Hopefully one day I can have one of my own. Also that Max-Min thermometer is genius! Really interesting when you talk about how lower (P) is ideal when fertilizing seedlings as it’s true they don’t require it nearly as much as (N) or (K) at this early stage and too much of it imbalances their nutrient intake. You have reminded me to be more mindful of which fertilizer to use for seedlings and to know when in the growth cycle is a time to switch to a balanced or a higher (P) one👌🏻

Just read an AP gardening article by Jessica Damiano, based in NY. JD suggests applying mulch in late may when soil has warmed up. Else, mulch will trap cool temp in soil, and prevent roots from awakening. This concern is new to me. What are your thoughts on when to apply mulch? I’m in 6b.

Would you mind recommending it tho? I’m rocking a 200$ plastic tarp greenhouse from Amazon. It’s certainly great for what I paid, it’s HUGE. But there’s not good sealing for the winter time and this thing will eventually deteriorate in the sun, I’m sure. But I can’t afford a $2k greenhouse so would love to know how this works for you in a few months.

don't know what you're hunting for but i have some rather tropical house plants that survived the cold in my green house but tthe neighbor said they looked sun burned. the leaves turned a shade of red. i know it's not sun burned because they were on the shay end of the house with the aloe vera that also got the red tinged leaves from being just a little too cold durring the winter blast back in january. (i don't want to heat my greenhouse with electric heat again. the elec bill is dificult to pay after that effort) hopeing to find a different way to heat...

What are your thoughts on sunken greenhouses in cold climates? Do they have any benefit over a traditional greenhouse build at ground level? I am in Northern BC and we can have some long winters. I don't intend to grow in my greenhouse year round but would love to be able to extend my season for warm weather crops. If I did down for my greenhouse, I can use that soil in raised bed outside the greenhouse! (Raised beds to keep dogs out of the garden)

Hi neighbor,from Alberta zone 3 as well. Firstly your videos are all amazing and very helpful. What do know about hydroponics? As far as fertilizing the water, so much confusion with A and B fertilizers. My husband is building me horizontal one as the tower one take too much space. I’m mainly doing lettuce and herbs as I’ve given up my battle with aphids out here. Thanks for your knowledge or giving me some sort of direction

If you are just growing leafy greens and herbs, the easiest option is to use General Hydroponic MaxiGro. Its a dry one part nutrient that costs around $20 a kilo. Mix at 4.3g per gallon of water, use half strength for young plants. Adjust ph to 5.8-6.0 and you are good to go :)

@GardeningInCanada5 ай бұрын
We are around 8-9 but keep in mind it’s just the temp that’s around the plants that matter. So higher planting density, covers, mulches all help warm up the space in the immediate vicinity. In Canada you will never get this perfect unfortunately and that’s why commercially we use greenhouses. But good rule of thumb is above 10
