Plastic is on Seedling Greenhouse

11/12/2018

Picture
Measuring out the roll of plastic. We put two layers of plastic on and will inflate the space between with air to provide more insulation.

Picture
We tied a tennis ball in the plastic with a long rope and tossed it over the arch. We used the rope attached to the ball and plastic to stretch the plastic over the frame.

Picture
Jeff went up on the ladder to fasten the plastic into a track using wiggle wire.

Picture
We used a rigid corrugated plastic on the upper flat of the greenhouse in hopes it will shed snow better. Jeff could just barely reach to fasten it in place.

Picture
Here it is. We still need to level the ground around the base and install the heater. In the short term we will heat it with propane but hope to transition to using solar hot water in pex tubing. We are excited to design the internal layout of tables for seedlings and growing beds for winter greens this winter. Jeff will also use it as a warm work space during the winter.
