I consider this very trendy topic now becouse of this all across globe cold spell ;).
This is how U can make cheap greenhouse in only one afternoon.
We had two old wardrobes witch were ready for trash and I came to idea to use them for greenhouses for palm and naner seedlings to save them from this attac of cold weather and strong winds witch are the biggest problem for me than low temperatures for now.
Instead wooden doors I closed them with transparent plastic doors from shower cabins. Few nails solved all fixing problems :).
With only little sun this "emergency" greenhouses can keep temperatures between 18-22C.
