Episode 152 Low Budget Greenhouse

Today’s show is basically more or less the story of how I built my 6×10′ greenhouse for ~$225. I did this in a weekend by myself. If you haven’t priced greenhouses lately you might not know that a greenhouse of this size sells for over $600 if not much more.

I talk about the tools required – Hammer, saw, drill, ratchet set (or wrench), level

The materials required – 2×4’s, 2×2’s, 4×4’s (all treated) some lag bolts and washers, a few firring strips (treated also), nails and some greenhouse plastic.

The process is relatively straightforward and I walk you through step by step.

Then I finish up by giving some tips on how to make a greenhouse warmer and what kinds of temps you can expect!
