Tropicman-no not really. In winter we'd be lucky to get a frost.

Bushland, TX(Zone 6a)

It's usually a frost that starts and end our winters!

Isn't that just terrible you have to do all that just to keep as if you were standing outside!

St. Louis County, MO(Zone 5a)

I took everything out of the greenhouse, it is hitting 110 in the shade with everything open, I even took out some panels. Our weather has been way above normal this month. The fan doesn't help when the outside temp is almost 100 with soupy humidity. I guess it will be a 3 season greenhouse, just not summer. I had a cucumber vine that was producing, but it was too hot to go in and water and pick, so I moved it outside.

Dale- if the temp. is the same in your plant house is the cover just for frost or something? Its a great big house.
Just funny seeing them plants under plastic when here they grow like a weed with hardly any care. hehe!

Breeindy,

Sometimes it can rain too much here.

I leave the top on year round. I am 60 it is too much work to remove and replace twice a year. The apex is 16' and I am nervous on a ladder (now).

In the past>
