Greenhouse/lean-to project
This is tall enough for some banana plants. I have the California Gold in there now so I'm hoping it will be warm enough to ripen the bananas on it now.

Re: Greenhouse/lean-to project
Is this a kit you bought? Where did you get all the parts from? I really enjoyed watching the video.

Where did you get the poly sheets and alum rails? Looks like 2x4 wood frame - is it treated wood? looks like top is 2x6. nice job on the hip roof- How do you keep roof from leaking? any vents for cooling in summer? I've wanted to build a GH for awhile now - Really like this design - Tell us more - any drawings or plans- or is it all in your head? BTW: Learned a trick from vinyl installer - use plywood blade but install it to rotate backwards - makes clean, even cut on vinyl siding, soffet etc. maybe also on polycarb?
