I just came across your Channel and was looking for some ideas for a greenhouse. You folks have done an excellent job not only building it, and filling it with some very healthy looking plants. By the way, in the future if you make any more buildings that you are going to put stain on, you may want to stain all of the wood prior to assembling. This way all sides of it will be done. I pray that you will have a blessed day today and everyday.

I would have done things different but what works for you - works for you, 1 question: Why not grow in what you call the floor area? You paid for the space you might as well use it! Unless this is a starter (seedling) greenhouse I would have made it bigger, I like the shelving and bench idea but I think I would have made it about 18 x 120 having about having 10 - 12 feet to plant every week so it would be ready to harvest every 90 days adding a wood stove or outdoor furnace allows growing year round. Just suggestions as I am looking at feeding myself not just a summer venture. overall good job. Being in Canada I prob would have used 2x6 on the exterior walls and 2x10 for the roof.

Great job, was wondering if you could add info about the battery solar stuff. I liked how compact that setup was.

You use less panels if you run them horizontally. You don’t have to cut panels. On the roof, we did them vertical that way the rain water would run off.☺️
