I don't imagine I did that correctly. It is now covered with condensation on the inside. Since I got that, the potatoes in the garden box have sprouted leaves. I have five, 5-gal buckets in there in the hopes that the thermal inertia will keep it warmish in the evening. When I go out in the morning, it's ambient. So, I imagine that insulation would be an issue. I am intrigued by these geodesic greenhouse plans online that look like they can hold an insulating air pocket. In case it matters to anyone, the supports for this are powder-goated steel and thick plastic connectors. It's reasonably sturdy and when tied to the buckets, it hasn't moved in the last few windy days.

For now, I am transferring my little banana plants out there during the sunny days and moving them in at night. I'll put them in the ground in April or something.
