Default Re: Greenhouse

Here in north central Texas, I errect the greenhouse at the end of October and only close it occasionally at night until near the end of December - and even then it'll spend more time open than closed until early March where it'll remain open for the most part until April and I tear it down again. Hopefully next season I'll get my larger nanners in the ground and will work on protecting them where they grow from then on...

Be well,
Mike

In central Florida I should only need it for a few months, but after this last spring I may want to keep it up to provide humidity for some plants. We had a draught from February through June this year in "semi-tropical" Florida. Now that the wet season is here I'm still watering about once a week. A few more signs of global warming, and I'm buying land a bit higher above sea level, in tropical Tennessee!
