Love this.... I grow year-round in Ohio . I can't wait to share this video with my network on growing4seasons. com Come visit us : would love to have you guest post on your site. Bren
My commuting takes me through a money neighborhood and I know when their trash night is. These ppl set out entire kitchens, high dollar furniture, antique doors, windows, you name it. Out with the old, in with the trendy-- and I'm happy to trashpick the old. Hundred-year old doors and timbers for free, no problem!!!
congratulations!!! i am currently collecting old windows for this same purpose. contact some renovation companies that specialize in windows. some will even deliver to you just so they dont have to take them to the dump! good job. maybe an old screen to keep out the pests on your window vents :)
Dude your video is madd cool. I wanna build a greenhouse but I never had experience. This year was my first year of gardening!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And so far itz been off da hook homie!!!!!!!! Yo I was considering some jobs part in the greenhouse or going to a greenhouse school!!!!!!! I live in the city!!!!!!!!!! And you are right the simple life is the way to go!!!!!!! Madd Respect G!!!!!!
Most of the windows actually came from the scrap metal section of the local dump LOL! The two wooden ones were from a friend who was putting in new windows. We still have some more that will be used for cold frames.
Other places I would look on are freecycle, yard sales and maybe Craigslist to.
For items, check out Craigslist, Freecycle, yard sales, garage sales, flea markets, dumps and also keep an eye out for things people may want disposed of and ask. If you know what you're doing you could offer to take apart old shed/buildings for scrap. Sometimes you will find old buildings that are in need of tearing down but the owner just doesn't want to spend the money. Do it free and you can get a lot of salvaged materials.

Nice project Dude. It looks as if you should look into growing some straw and fix that thing on your head. "HAT"

How'd those big panels you put in the roof hold up through the winter? How long will your greenhouse last without a foundation?
oldtimeway1 1 year ago
the panels held up just fine as the snow always blows off in that area as for the lasting we expect to get about 10 years easy to fix and replace

You should build the foundation first and then enclose it with low cost OSB 3/4" subfloor. Now you have a flat surface to work on to build up walls.

Hi guys, I love it!!! What are some good places to pick up salvage building materials -- Do you use
Craigslist, auctions, what? What are the dimensions? Any hey -- quit knocking your carpentry skills. It looks pretty darned good to me!
BTW -- You two seem to have so much fun together on these projects. Makes for some charming videos. : )
