@@hollyhancock2319 I pruned a bell pepper back to its main stalk, dug it up and put it in a 5 gallon bucket, and put it in the greenhouse. It not only survived and regrew where it had been pruned, but it set fruit that I was able to harvest from mid-winter on. This spring I set the bucket outside of the greenhouse, and the plant continued to thrive. This year I am going to prune it back again and put it back in the greenhouse to see how long I can keep that plant producing. I would like to refresh the soil, but I don't want to disturb the roots.

Lol being in the tropics we grow tomatoes and other more expensive and delicate fruits and vegetables inside the greenhouse as the bush turkeys, possums and whatnot will destroy EVERYTHING UNPROTECTED. Ironically All the green leafy veg like Bok Choy spinach etc the animals don't like eating as much can be planted outside. Bush turkeys even rip through cloth or tulle, then dig up to 30cm for seed potatoes so even potatoes cannot be grown outside.

Over 30 years ago, I thought I wanted a greenhouse. I knocked on the doors of strangers who had hobby greenhouses and asked for a tour. I visited a few in different seasons. I concluded that for me, it was a bad idea, especially in my area of the mid-Atlantic. I simply could not justify the cost and energy demand. With cold frames and a little ingenuity (similar to my grandmother's), I'm able to grow all the bedding plants I need--and my neighbors too.

My Greenhouse gives me flexibility. You hear of people being able to plant early but, you can also start late and still get production. I heated my Greenhouse last year in fall for 4 frost nights and got an extra 80 days added before and after frost. 80 days is an extra season or 2 for curtain things. In the winter I mainly use the greenhouse to workout, it’s 100 degrees F on a freezing day as long as the sun is out.

Great video. It gets me thinking 😅 I wish I had the money to hire a landscape designer or architect(?) with permaculture & food forest sensibilities to help me plan out more useful landscape & outbuildings. A greenhouse sandwiched between an aviary & a chicken run? A well-vented building for quail & rabbit battery cages & maybe a dog kennel? A play house for the smaller human, with room to grow? Appropriate alterations to irrigation? A grow room within a large workshop, for mushrooms? Automation options? Mmmm. That would be lovely. If money weren't an object, I would make a specialist's YEAR. I've enjoyed turning the "tree park" corner of the 1/3rd acre into a tiny bit more of a bird oasis. Want Moar!!

A lot of other unspoken details need considering and can't be overlooked really, but don't let that stop you. Of course there will be things you wish you did differently despite the overall success of your project, that always happens. Get to growing.

The one advantage poly has over glass is that it was very easy to cut it to mount an exhaust fan.

My wife and I designed and built a 20ft geodesic greenhouse this spring. I 100% agree with you about being paralyzed with the space and options. We also found that the intake/exhaust fans were a must with the summer heat, but I think we still struggle with airflow based on how well some of the plants did. You talked about opening up better options - If I recall, coffee is solidly a tropical plant? That would be fantastic. I want to move our citrus and olives in this winter. I am in 6b/7, and hoping that with the proper setup we can keep that greenhouse above 60F throughout the winter. To be honest, I wish we had gone with something simpler and easier to take care of. It looks cool as hell, but I already know what I need to replace and I need to schedule maintenance around the grow season to make sure I am not trampling everything inside.

When I was a kid, my dad built a glass greenhouse (b/c he thought it would be less of an eyesore near the house than one using fiberglass) in FL. Didn't work for conventional vegetables or even orchids, but a great place to collect Kalahari Desert plants. (So hot even some cacti struggled.) I still miss the stinky but amazingly peculiar stapeliads that grew like weeds. If you use glass or another transparent, heat trapping material, you might try an aquaponics setup (for tilapia or other tropical fish; Rio Grande perch sounds cool) so that the water can moderate temperatures (at the cost of high humidity though) enough for at least Southern and tropical vegetables/fruit. Or pay attention to the microclimate you created and become a collector (probably of low-altitude desert plants) and consider it a hobby rather than food production platform. Some cacti are of course delicious, so there is that option.

It looks like you also used the wrong kind of gravel for your shed. Not sure about the greenhouse since it's not actually supporting anything. But it looks like you put down clear stone/washed gravel. What you actually want is AG stone/Paver base/road base (different names for the same thing) which is a mixture of 3/4-1.5" gravel, along with smaller pieces of gravel and fines (crushed stone). This mix can be wet down and compacted and will make a very hard, compacted surface appropriate for various uses depending on the depth. If you want a more compacted surface for your greenhouse in the future, you could probably mix some fines in with what's there, wet it down and tamp it, and you'll have a hard, smooth surface.

I love my little greenhouse even though it isn't a permanent structure like yours. I just took a 10x10 pole canopy that you can pick up at a big box store and skinned it out last year with cheap clear plastic film instead of the fabric it came with. This year I managed to get my hands on some 4mm double wall greenhouse panels pretty cheap and will be using those instead for a more substantial setup. Since I can take it down at the end of the season and put it back up when it is needed again, I need no building permits for it. The frame also made a great trellis for my dipping gourds and luffas, though when they are done I will be scrambling to get the panels on it before it gets too cold out for some of my other plants that need to spend the winter in there.

Awesome idea! I was thinking to do something similar with one of the free trampolines I constantly see on craigslist. We already built a shade structure with 3 of them. Just went to Home Depot and got longer poles to raise the trampolines to different levels and over lap them slightly like a venn diagram. The trampoline fabric looks like a 50% shade cloth so it makes hot sunny days more enjoyable in the yard. This type of greenhouse would be more airy than an enclosed greenhouse but I think it would be warm enough in zone 10a. Tarp it or put clear plastic over top in winter to keep rain out.

Or, do pop in and out panels for seasons. I love that wax piston window system, though I wonder what temps it has to get to for opening and closing.

I get great sunlight, I'm in Texas so we had a hot summer, but I didn't have it done yet. Omgoodness you're in California, I'm from northern calif, but I have lived in Texas a long time. But my from scratch greenhouse looks fabulous, I do not have electricity to it, but a cool solar lamp for it. I have very good ventilation with really good screen material.

Shampoo ginger is actually pretty hardy. Mine froze to the ground last winter in far NE FL (near the GA border) and came back no problems. There's even some in the neighborhood that only gets irrigated from rainfall and it also came back fine. Once established most gingers are pretty resilient. I love your greenhouse. Definitely on my 'one day/wish list'. I would probably have to do polycarbonate with the hurricanes here.

I picked up a shampoo ginger from northern Florida and brought it back to PA with me. I'm growing it in a pot and it is THRIVING. It's been a couple months and it is so huge and happy looking :) I intent to take it back to Florida when I make my next trip there but I bet I could just bring it inside my house in the winter and keep it in PA if I wanted.

Beautiful trichocereus bridgesii mini stand you have going in the greenhouse!! I almost missed it, till I saw those familiar Blueish green hues poking out from the back row. It has a gorgeous glaucous patina forming, and it'll explode with growth living in San Diego. Excited to watch it grow over the next few years!!

In NW Florida, zone 8b, it's just now starting to slowly cool off. It's dropping down into the high 80s, low 90s and we're officially out of the 100s for the summer! (Hopefully 🥵🥴) Waiting on Botanical Interest seeds to come in the mail so I can get this fall season rolling! 🤙

i've got a greenhouse and noticed that the lowes aren't much different from outside so that really limits what i can do with it in my area. and the highs are like 10 degrees higher than the highes outside which bakes everything inside. i think a much better solution is to use a grow tent indoors with grow lights. that way, those shorter days in the winter aren't an issue and you get the perfect temps for seedlings too. it's a great solution.
