That is looking well and your ventilation seems adequate. I try to keep my greenhouse around 24C but, on some days it's a case of opening everything and watering well. Over time I have learned how to keep the temp where I want it and you will too. On days when the temp is up and down my wife says you'd think I had an elastic rope tying me to the greenhouse.
Hi Garry, That greenhouse is looking great and your ventilation would seem to be adequate. It's hard to regulate the temperature in a greenhouse without automatic window openers etc but I have learned, through experience, how to keep the temperature around 24C. Sometimes that isn't possible so it's a case of open everything and water well. Over time you'll work out what works for you. On days when temps change rapidly my wife says you'd think I had a rubber rope tied to me.
@baconsoda I know what you mean about the rubber rope, I am running down checking the temperature every few hours and my wife wants to know when I plan to move in there. best garry
@RelyOnYourselfTV yes its water tight,I was thinking exactly the same thing with a fan and solar panel, but the ventilation seems to work, it was 35 in the shade here today and it only went up to 39 in the greenhouse best garry
Nice flaps! If you don't already have a way, you should find a way to keep them closed in case of strong winds... plus, it'll help retain the heat in the cold weather.
Everything looks like it's coming along great!! Can't wait to see the finished produce. =)
That's a great looking greenhouse, looks futuristic!

Is it water tight with the timber on the roof on the inside?
I'd be tempted to put a little solar panel on it and a fan to circulate the air a bit.

@garryentropy should be OK for peppers and chillies etc, But you'd kill lettuce or anything green at that temperature I'd say.
