  • Disaster struck my greenhouse! The coldest night of the year hit, and my heater decided to take a vacation...permanently. I woke up to a frozen jungle, and my precious plants were on the brink of death. This video is a race against time as I try to save my botanical babies from a frosty demise. Will they survive? Can I bring them back from the icy clutches of winter?

    Something similar happened to me. I lost a bunch but I realized a lot of plants are extremely cold hardy. It was a good lesson to keep my babies indoors during the winter.

    Glad you didn't lose everything. That could have been a disaster.

    One 9f the reasons why an add on to the house would be preferable to a freestanding greenhouse. Have seen where they used freestanding trombe walls pre cheap glass production. The ambient heat assisted earlier production of high value foods, etc.
    Could add a cob wall and a rocket mass heater (or something similar/cheaper) as backup...

      An attached greenhouse provides efficiency benefits but can lead to insurance complications because it’s part of the home. Moreover, since my farm doesn’t have any other buildings yet, this option isn’t practical. Now that the heater is properly installed, I’ve achieved excellent temperature regulation.

    My mother fig plant died however I took two cutting over a year ago that are thriving. My only concern is when they get a fig on them they disappear. I'm not sure if it's birds, squirrels or people. Any hel
