Re: Christmas lights, frost cloth, how to keep them alive in unheated greenhouse.
Should be fine in your zone, not sure how big yours will be but bigger makes them less likely to overheat and cool off too fast. My 12x12 would get 110 degrees if the sun came out and it was closed up, this one is much more stable. I found frost cover on greenhouse megastore that give up to 10 degrees more protection. I think 3 feet x 250 was like 63 dollars. You might try buying something like that and doubling it up. At 7 inches from the floor my pots covered with leaves, and plastic stayed at 43 degrees while outside it was 15, but it rapidly loses degrees the higher you get from the floor. I lay my taller stuff on the ground to take advantage of it. Anything close to the plastic cover wilted slightly
