Hey that looks great. I found the same one you have on hayneedle for $99 with free shipping. I ordered it yesterday, they shipped it today and the est delivery date is in 2 days. I have trouble every year starting my seeds and can't find a good spot in my yard for a permanent greenhouse so this looks perfect to put up for a couple months in the spring then put it away. Thanks

Hi, new subscriber after watching Michigansnowpony. Watched the rabbit dressing..cringed alot but I know it has to be done. I use to help my dad when I was a kid do that w/squirrels but the killing part I never could watch as I love animals as pets too much. I am a meat eater & made myself watch it just in case I ever had to do it, or had to pass on the knowledge of how-to to my kids when times are bad. I always felt like that was "men's work" but starving crosses the gender lines, right? lol

@kokonutbaby1 Thanks for watching. Butchering animals is not for everyone and that is fine. I did a video of my wife butchering and cleaning a rabbit. I asked her to try it once and she said it was easier than she thought it would be. Not that is gonna start doing it every time but she got the basic idea of how the process works.

Just wondering if bugs can get between boards should screen the floor nice green house.

[KainanRa]

@MrMrtiki I had not really thought about it. Since i plan on leaving the door open so it doesnt get to hot inside I am not going to worry about it right now. If I ever cut some vents in it with screens I will need to do something about the floor. Thanks for bringing it up.

For the floor, I just dumped some sand, compacted it a littttle bit by using a 2x4 and a mallet. I took some mismatch 12x12 tiles down, used my 2x4 and rubber mallet to smack them down.... rubbed some more sand between the tiles... a few rocks and bricks around the perimeter. The wind blew off and tore my plastic cover so it stood open for a month - just the frame and my floor of tiles and sand (which held good sun heat into the dark hours - floor stay put!

I got one of these from Tek Supply - mine was $250 and the plastic on your $100 seems better (mine also has 3 shelf levels but none at the back.

My plastic tore all to heck and back,so I've had to improvise - But, since our Spring has been very cold, I had to heat it up at night so I used a relatively safe oil radiator heater - but now that it has warmed up, during the day, I put an occilating fan in there to move the air around. It also helps reduce diseases.

If anyone is looking... I just noticed ebay has a number under "walk in green house".

Great vid!

Bought a greenhouse today, thanks to this video! I'll be posting a video tonight with kudos to you for the idea!

[Michigansnowpony]

Awww, you're very welcome. Yours is a great channel. I think you're a shining example of just what can be accomplished towards self-sufficiency in a suburban setting, which is where a lot of folks find themselves. And if it weren't for you, my husband would probably still be dragging his feet about butchering our rabbits. He needed the "refresher" course your video(s) provided. So, THANK YOU!
