UPS delivered our RION EcoGrow Greenhouse kit the other day. This 6×10 honey should take care of our early gardening needs with no problems.
Now all we have to do is wait the snow to melt.

We are on an adventure learning the ropes of starting a small farm, being self-sufficient and living in a 100 percent off-the-grid solar powered home. We'll share the ups and downs of raising chickens, pigs, growing a garden, and life in general, all with a twist of humor thrown in for good measure.Old Archives

I see LOTS of utility in this one! Super! You are definately on your way, but, may need another to sprout all you garden/canning needs for a winter.

We hope to get some seeds sprouted by April. We ordered all Heirloom Organic seeds this year. No Monsanto GMO for us ever again.
from the looks of that picture, it looks warm enough to start TODAY. AND that does not look like Linda in that picture MISTER j/k LOL
Now remember the Greenhouse hand model does not come with the kit.
darn
i was all set to order greenhouse like yours till was told lady not included
guess i have to search other places for the next ex mrs ron
good luck with veggie plants
I think that option would increase the cost quite a bit.
We have that greenhouse but it is 8×12 in Arizona. We have modified it a lot by adding a solar powered exhaust fan, mister system, shade cloth, passive water barrels for solar heat collection, etc. BUT, we are so frustrated because we cannot get our temperatures under control. In the summer it still gets above 100 degrees in there and in the winter, it still gets around 20 degrees. We’ve tried changing our growing seasons also. We get awesome plants but barely no fruit/produce. The herbs do really well in there though.
Any suggestions on how to keep it cooler without adding electricity?
Thanks!
