Thank you! I am in Central California just south of Fresno. My next greenhouse will be attached to the house by my dryer vent!

where do you get the plastic?

The plastic can be purchased at any large hardware store and can be purchased on eBay. I purchased mine at Lowes. I wanted 6 mil thick, but 4 mil was more affordable.

Thank You for making this video,
It is a design i am about to make, but you don’t explain how you fasten the plastic on?
Or if you add vents?
Or if you leave one side unsecured so it can be rolled up for access?
Or if you need to support the middle section from bowing out?

Thanks

Hi Lorne – I’m actually making a new design and will post soon. The plastic is all attached with zip ties with small holes poked through the plastic. No vents, but I only zip-tie the sides down half way to allow for access and use clamps to tack the hanging plastic to the frame. On windy days the greenhouse can be left open. No supports are needed for a small design, but if it is doubled in size then supports are needed between the frame sections with PVC and fittings. Great questions! Thanks!

Go Girl !! That was great !! Hard times are ahead, but we are going to feed our family, aren’t we girl? Would appreciate more tips — I’m starting a small plant grow in my bay winter in preparation for winter. Has to be low budget. Hope everyone out there is putting up food and water. We are in for a rough ride ahead. God bless. Lana

Lana – You are a sweetie! Hope you will also follow me on Twitter and Blogspace. I need to grow my own salad, so will work out a plan for winter veggie gardening on a budget. Are you able to build a greenhouse up against your house like I did? BTW I’ve got a new community garden project coming up soon! GAiL

Hi, I’m interested in building a small not too big Greenhouse for myself but am unsure of the materials I may need. I thought for a start I could break down my old set of drawers and configure something out of that and possibly make it portable.
