Learning How To Grow A Kiwi Tree From Seed, Plus Early Morning Chores
Love this build, and your style of teaching. Very thorough, simple and detailed. We might do a version of this with plastic and see how it fares for our Texas panhandle wind. Bet we could convert to polycarbonate panels if needed. The strapping is probably a good idea, we'll be sure to use that. Might do a spring-controlled louvered vent above the door facing east with an intake on north corner. We have dust storms from south and west to also contend with in spring/summer.
Same here bud! Good job 👏 we have to do it to learn. If we like it then guess what 🎉it’s fine
Did u ever put cameras up? Trail cam?
I missed hearing the measurements. How wide is this and how tall are the 2x4 sides?
10ft wide and 2x4 sides are 2ft tall. Building another cattle panel greenhouse with 4ft tall sides . Thanks for reaching out
Will you be uploading a video of building the new greenhouse?
@@ChristianHillHomeStead With 2' sides, seems it could be widened a foot or two and still have >6 foot headroom. God's Son is back btw.
The little man helped a lot!
Glad you went into the cute Rabbits. They need to not be w’et. 🥰😍
You need to be more organized to utilize your greenhouse more fully. Potatoes are an easy crop and doen't need to be in the greenhouse. Grow heat loving veggies in the greenhouse like tomatoes and peppers, and when cool again lettuce, Spinach, Kale, carrots etc. In the winter months.
Looks Great! I am in the process of building a cattle panel greenhouse, by myself also, it's only 8x10 but very similar to your design, simple and effective. I got some pointers from watching your videos. Waiting for my plastic to arrive, not looking forward to the end walls.
Thats awesome and thank you. End walls werent that bad , just keeping the plastic pulled tight and securing was alittle challenge, this build has handle wind gust of 70mph and very pleased with it,, feel free to contact us on our Faceboook page @Christianhillhomestead if need or have any questions
I am from Iraq...a clean and wonderful job..and I liked the rooster's voice 🙂🙂
Please check out the below Chinese style passive greenhouse using cattle panels - ua-cam.com/video/jUcXq0C30XQ/v-deo.html
Breaks are GOOD! We all need to take them!
Yes they are thanks for the support
Cool, I love to see everyone else's take on the cattle panel greenhouse. Here's mine ua-cam.com/video/jUcXq0C30XQ/v-deo.html
Run Eli, run!!!
When it is real cold like that at night, throw a scoop of WHOLE corn in for them to eat b4 they go to roost...while digesting the corn it helps their bodies stay warm....one of the main things is to feed them b4 roosting....hope all goes well...I'm in Illinois we had negative 40 and mine did fine...no heat lamp..main thing is make sure there is no draft on them
thanks for the info , every little bit helps , ive got whole corn ready for next time , glad your flock is doing great , maybe heat lamp was not needed but was our first time with relly low temps for our bird
Merry Christmas dear friends!

If the rain is flooding out your greenhouse try digging very narrow channels outside around it and then a channel to drain away. And/Or control the flooding by directing the channels inside and excess back out, controlling where you want the water to go. Might be a worthwhile experiment. I love to reuse those food containers for seed starting.
Yeah havent thought of that idea , thanks for the info, will look into it . If all goes well ill share it . These food containers are best practice for anyone
@@ChristianHillHomeStead good luck. Just an idea, I don't have a greenhouse but I remember seeing a video of someone in England with a similar problem.
I think you will find that the pigs need a bigger pen. Also some paddock with greenery.
Where are you located ?
Southern IN
Be interesting to know how much snow load it could handle?
Yes very interesting , ill be posting a video on that once we get our first big snow ,
Put some small cable runs across the peek 18 inches down (or just above your head). Should keep the sides from spreading which will keep the peek up
Thank you will get some supplies for that, and how would you recommend attaching the cable ties to the cattle panels
@@ChristianHillHomeStead we just used 1/8 stainless steel cable (cheap) and used cable clamps on each side
I need to talk to you about some pigs.
You can send any questions through our facebook @ChristianHillHomeStead and we'd be happy to help
#1 like & comment my FRIEND! Well done with the onion and garlic! Like your Cattle Panel Greenhouse….where did you get the panels? What is the plastic grade?
Thank you . It is simple and low cost build i think every homestead should have when starting out. Cattle panels are from local Tractor Supply , and plastic is Farm Plastic Supply - Clear Greenhouse Plastic Sheeting - 6 mil - (24' x 50') - 4 Year UV Resistant Polyethylene Greenhouse Film, Hoop House Green House Cover for Gardening, Farming, Agriculture a.co/d/97bVT0N.
will there be any dangerous gasses coming off the compost? Just wondering, because it seems like that would be dangerous if there are gasses that could build up in a small space, especially if a kid is inside for any length of time. I'm not saying there will be gasses, I don't know...but I am curious about that.
How many temparature an incubator sir
I started out at 99.5F until sprouts strated showing and then turned down to 97.5F
@@ChristianHillHomeStead thanks
Like #2 right here! Hey my Buddy! Garry here from GBL-The Ole Church 5 Acre Homestead!…you have been busy…lots going on! Stop by for a chat!
Rose of Sharon bush is the cuttings
Thank you . Yes couldnt remember if you mentioned that before👍
I have to say, I don't think those tie-downs are going to function very good. Besides that, looking good enough to get the job done!👍
True i thought the same way , but we have had a few tornadic storms, and high winds arou d 80+ and tie downs have held pretty good . I did decided to move them and wrap them around the 2x4s instead of just anchoring the tie downs to the 2x4s. . We do enjoy the feedback thank you .
@@ChristianHillHomeStead yeah, I thought wrapping them made more sense while I was watching. When I saw you with the cut off wheel, I thought you were going to use the hole for a screw or something. 😏
@@brad0805 yea we learn as we go . But now im glad i changed setup . Theres no way the screws wouldve last without splitting the frame . Now we got to see if it will survive this winter. . Next greenhouse will have more prep and thought into it
Thanks for the update. I am collecting ideas before starting the greenhouse. I like the way you constructed the side walls. I am planning on screening the bottom of the side wall under the plastic so that I can roll up the plastic. Living in zone 9a I have to have a lot of ventilation in the summer.
anytime. hey thats the best method , gather ideas and pick the best or use those to create your own unique idea. i wish i wouldve added screen but we are in 6b and greenhouse is in straight line wind. but wish you best on your ideas
It was 106 here today we didn't get much outside done, way to hot I plan on doing the self-wicking bucket garden method I can move my buckets in or out of greenhouse and hopefully grow year-round when we do ger greenhouse done. I love the planter boxes.
wow thats to hot , we had heat index around 103 and i was burnt , trying to do garden work in that heat was exhausting, wish you best of luck on self wicking bucket and i thought of using 5 gallon buckets. thank you on planter boxes
New supscriber here, thanks for keeping it real improvise that's what we would do as well. We are working on putting up a 10x20x8 got the frame just about done and almost ready to add the panels etc....
no problem we try to keep it that way . a lot of our projects are just started with little prep. kinda show everyone that there is struggle . Thats awesome and cant wait to see final build

Good morning my FRIEND. Let’s work on the garden….very common and often said refrain this time of year! Great Share! See you in our garden soon.
Kill it
Just threw it out in hay field
Did it work?
Sure did. We where able to tell a difference in 24 hours.
How often is this needed changed/removed compared to basic bedding?
good idea... awesome...
Tea? Are you going to drink it?
No sir lol . Our plants do enjoy it though. Thank you
@@ChristianHillHomeStead I feel like you just changed the video title from tea to compost tea. I didn't see compost at 1st lol.
Well we should change it to Rabbit Poo Tea
Building one like this but 2 panels long thanks
How thick of plastic did you use?
I ordered 6mil plastic from amazon . If you double layer it'll last a lot longer . When plastic gets in ill show it in Day 2 video
Thats awesome . It 'll work out great for ya
Looks awesome! Real slick " tea bag" you made. Good luck and happy growing in all your future experiments. Oh and thanks for the great content!
Thank you for great feedback and support . There will a lot more future experiments to come. Once again thank you
Well done bud
