  • I've been gathering recycled, tempered glass panels from a company thats re-doing all the windows in an apartment complex and I'm going to build a greenhouse near the end of this summer. I live in Reno, NV, we only have about 3 months of growing season, cold winters and HOT summers. I have access to more glass and space than I need, should I build a large greenhouse in anticipation of growing through the winter or just staring seeds? Thanks for your videos.

  • I would encourage you to build a "dual pane" green house, which is better insulated. I would build a larger facing to the south with an extra row of pannels to collect the sun when its out. You should GO FOR IT and attempt to grow thru the winter. Check my other videos for how people in Milwaukee, WI grow in the snow using only compost as the heat source. You can do that in Reno too! (And they didnt even have double panes)

  • I have the same green house. I have a temp gauge the reads the outside temp and the green house temp which is about a 20 degree difference. Do you know what I could use to heat my green house in the winter.I live where it gets cold and it snows. I have not had a garden for years but decided to 1 last year. I still have the green thumb.I enjoyed it and had all sorts of foods. I have 5 raised beds. My tomato plants were over 6 feet tall. Thank you for sharing your videos they are great.

  • hey, where do you get the kangkong seeds because it is hard to find?? Also, love your videos!

  • I just built a greenhouse and have been looking for a solar fan. How is yours working? Can you tell me the make and model? So many solar fans are crap; I want to make sure I get one that actually works.

  • unique things? lol i see lambs quarters @ 2:14 =D

  • where do you get all these interesting-named seeds

  • I bought the largest one I could that won't fit in my space.. gotta get creative I guess when I set it up.

  • Miracle berries!

    That was beautiful, I liked the little white moth flying around at the end.

  • Looks great John. Thanks for all of your videos.

    Also, I love my Omega 8006.
