Hi all
I'd like to set up a greenhouse for our veggies & ourdoorsy stuff. The goal/function, I suppose, is to be able to get a head start/late finish on things throughout the year.
I'm planning on making a frame house and covering it with plastic, though I may do the roof in corrugated plastic - we'll see.
Anyway, I'd like to hear from y'all about considerations, things to keep in mind when building this. Here are some things i'm chewing on, though I'm sure there are many more I'm missing..
- How big? I'd like it to be fairly compact/not too imposing - but
ultimately, the idea is to be able to get a head start on enough to
fill two 3' x 16' raised beds, and then some)
- What about ventilation? Can I get by with a passive situation of
some sort? What size in/out is good?
- ..Any other considerations, I'd love to hear 'em. Thus far, my outside growing experience is more hobby than function, though I'm expanding every year, .. If nothing else, I love the idea of a greenhouse to increase the amount of months throughout the year I can tinker with the outdoor veggie hobby.
Hoping to hear any and all input - thanks y'all
