    What did you use to put the kettle panels together? Would I be able to use this in the winter to grow tropical plants? I live in Southern Ohio zone six

      I go over that in my other videos. You would need to heat the greenhouse for tropical plants in the winter.

    Are there any cons to building this on top of a knee wall?

      The shelf framing is a modified knee wall. If you are looking for more height I would add another 2x6 to the base.

    5 year's here, 7 panels, runs N,S. Doors on each plywood end. Iirc 56 wicking tubs, 2 levels. Wiggle wire and track on base, fence staples both sides for 2500 lb. Polyester pull tape. Attach 1 side toss over, install hitch loop where appropriate, thru staple, loop and PULL. Every 24inches. Plastic doesn't fudge. Only thing that does the plastic in is big hale stones. That allows for the plastic to be staged at different levels when needed . Lots of good videos on them. Everyone should have one. OH, plastic matters, buy the good stuff at a greenhouse supply. Be sure to get the anti drip 😊.

    I like the design. Thinking about doing one that is 2 panels deep. Would you say that 2 people could pick up/ move yours to relocate it if necessary? Or possibly move it on skids?

      Probably. No upper shelves. Remove the door and window.

    • @mtlibertydesigns

      I priced this project with new materials in January of 2023 at $650. Materials have come down considerably since then. I would think you could build this for $550. Again all new materials.

    I bought your plans last fall and built the greenhouse and am very happy with it. I made mine 12 feet long instead of 8 feet. Instead of anchoring it with rebar I concreted six 4x4's at the corners and in the middle and screwed two rows of 2x6's to make it a little taller. Other than that followed your plans. Your right about extending the weed barrier outside the greenhouse i am having the same problem with weeds growing around the inside edges. I live in Texas and even some days in winter it gets a 100 degrees or more in the greenhouse so I added a ventilation fan. Overall this is a great design, very satisfied with the results, thank you.

    Is there a benefit on total cost when comparing this to an option like shelter logic?

    • @mtlibertydesigns
      @mtlibertydesigns 4 місяці тому

      I think the biggest benefit is that it does not blow away. Plus for a couple hundred more dollars than the shelter logic stuff you get something that you can use for quite a long time.

    I built one and had it for 9 years before I started experiencing any decay of the treated wood. Despite being treated, I had a swarm of termites do some damage on one side just this past year. Started off using home depot plastic sheeting and that only lasted a season. After that I started using greenhouse film which lasted for about 5 years in my Texas sun before replacing. Well worth the money. The foam cushion also started decaying after about the 9 year mark. I've taken down the structure to build another, but it was super inexpensive and useful for several years.

  • @speakrighttogod

    Really appreciate the follow-up. Pavers are a great idea as a "floor" in the greenhouse and alleviates wear and tear from walking directly on the weed cloth. Weed management is even better when putting down cardboard on the grass first, weed cloth on the cardboard and pavers on the weed cloth. As for snow, if two cattle panel pieces are joined at the top as the "ceiling/roof" to make it wider (example, joining 2 16-foot panels at the top/center) WITHOUT support, a foot of snow will make it sink in the middle. Floor-to-ceiling support beams remedied that. You had single panels (a plus) supported by a full-length beam from front to back (another plus), so snow wasn't an issue. Yay! Even though it's not made from bricks, a third plus is the physics & strength of an "arch" shape/build. Looking forward to seeing the next greenhouse build. Thank you and God bless you!
