We make the greenhouse by bending cattle fence panels over the raised bed and cover with clear plastic. I planted lettuce, chard, tatsoi, and bok choi last August. We have been harvesting and eating these greens all winter. Now that it is warming a little they are growing new leaves.
When I opened the end to look in today, it was really warm in there. I wanted to climb inside and heat up. The outside temperature here is 45 degrees.
I planted seeds in there 10 days ago, and the new plants are coming up. They will be protected from frost.
Interestingly, I have not watered all winter until today. Condensation kept it like a rain forest in there.
My honey bees kept landing on the opening and checking it out. They liked the water and the heat.
