Re: DIY greenhouse - $30 maybe
It went down to maybe 39 or so last night
The greenhouse was 51 when I checked it at 6:45a
I took the West side storms off (7'), South side (10') is mostly off
Only 3' of storms left on facing South. The East wall (7') still has both storms on. It's supposed to stay in the 50's at night after Wed.
This fall I'm going to dig down & insulate the perimeter to a depth of about 3' on the East & South sides. The West side I'm going to have to dig deeper as it borders the stairs to the basement. I have a bunch of insulation that was under the vinyl siding I removed
So I figure 1" should give me about R4-R5, I may be able to go thicker then that
Ideally I'd like a couple temp probes
Ceiling, floor level, 6" in the dirt & then maybe 2' down
I used to work for a company that had chart systems to track/check/certify furnace Temps. I'm sure by now the stuff is computerized. But I'm out of work so that will have to wait
And My HoneyDoList is pretty long
I'm getting ready to finish up the roof on an addition
24x36 garage, same size great room over it, & a walk up 19x24 attic
I'm debating on starting bananas this year, or waiting until next year. I know (think?) they can take a while to grow/bear fruit. So maybe I should start them this year. I'm going to have to spend some time going thru threads & researching
