Green house review

I got the replacement door in I had to unpack all the other parts of the green house to get to it ,I had a great idea (so thats this month thinking out the window) I took poles from the new one and clipped them to the bottom of the sides so they would hold the side down when not up and I could open and close as needed it worked good , I have one side left to do but I need to move my RV first

so we had 50 mile an hour gusts and its still standing the wind did damage one zipper on the door , I like it overall it has 5 different panels the sides go from the horizontal bar to ground the end doors and the top I was able to get it done by myself , the issues I had trouble with tieing down the sides but once the ground thaws I have some rebar stakes to drive in the ground and I will put some type of clip to that so it will hold them down but I can disconnect them to roll them up , the panels are held on by these plastic clips I thought they would suck but they worked really well except for the top of the frame every pipe connection is mechanical the top frame does slide into the bottom so I added some self tapping screws so they are not going anywhere so all in all I'm pretty pleased with it I paid 300 for mine but its on sale now for 260 timeing lol I dug 8 holes per side with 2 in the middle so I can do 18 plants 6 per adult is the legal limit so I will have to grow the rest in the woods

I don't suppose there is any way to lock such a greenhouse? I'm currently thinking about installing a greenhouse, and will probably go with solid walls, but really only because of concern about getting popped by CO for not having it locked.
 
I have a chain link fence around the inside with one gate at the door , I had a choice I could buy the green house and use its poles or buy the poles for the chain link , I used tie wraps to attach the top and then the wire fence ties (they make an unbelievable good tie down hook instead of wire ).. I built green house using 4x4s as a base drilled holes in them for the poles and then tied the green house to them. I also attached the chain link to the 4x4s
 
Wow, OJH that is one short gal standing in the doorway of the GH in the link,,, looking at the pic one would think its 10-12 feet tall!
 
I just looked she is short ,amazing how they try and make thing appear bigger ( thats polite talk fxxxing aholes for trying to misrepresenting there product lol)
 
"You can grow up to 6 plants in your home, and up to 12 plants for 2 or more adults"

So, can you legally roll the sides of the greenhouse up for ventilation, making the plants visible to others (if that's case)?
"The plants cannot be visible from a public place without the use of binoculars, aircraft or other optical aids"

Here we can have 2 mature and 4 immature plants. Looks like they may be passing a sales tax regulation law here, which also may include saliva testing for impaired driving, of course it doesn't and can't determine if you are impaired.
I really hate this part, call me paranoid but I think it's a grab for our dna sample.

38 degrees, snowing and I just lit the friggin woodstove.......! You have a heater in the greenhouse? (vbg)
Happy Mother's Day!!! :)
 
its the end of June the GH has been through the ringer big storms,heavy winds and yesterday hail ,its still standing with no damage the one thing they could improve on is the side flaps ,I have poles wrapped in the bottom of the sides with rope tied to them to pull them up ,all in all I'm very happy with this GH
 
I have a question or 2,,, What are "heavy winds" in your hood?
I often have 80 MPH straight line wind gusts (twisters too, but I would not expect any GH to hold up tp that), we can have up to 110 MPH SLW in a storm. I would luv to have a GH but I am afraid it would just get blown away,,,,
 
I have had wind gusts up to 50 ,after I set it up and tied it down from the frame I threw a 1/2 inch rope over the top and crisscrossed it , I think 110 would suck the plastic off but the frame would still be there lol
seriously how often do those storms hit , the green house to me is used primarily in spring and fall for the cold temps/frost My self I have raised the sides to let air in and keep temp down ,If there was a huge storm coming I'd take the plastic off for the duration then put it back on its held on with these clips they work good and are easy to get on and off , the top I put on once the frame was up from inside ,I did say the connections on the frame were mechanical (nut and bolt) so no frame pull apart connections except the curved poles to the bottom part of the frame and these I used a self tapping screw , I himmed and haawed for awhile over the same issues storms and such , it really came down to cost for chain link poles It would of cost me 400 for the GH was 300 and I used its poles for the fence

We just had a thunderstorm with tornadic winds in our locale. I have never seen the trees bent over like that before. Fortunately I have not gone to all of the work to move my 12X20 greenhouse from one of my rental properties to our home site. It would have most certainly been destroyed even though the plastic is the 12 mil variety. Looks like my laziness paid off this time.
 
The forecast for tomorrow is 101, and there have been multiple 100+ days this year. On a number of occasions I have had to move my plants into a car port to avoid some of this extreme heat.

Glad it has held up well! Ya, brutal weather, I had an excavator on my current job site yesterday and I was the labor in the ditch.
I've been battling the flu the past 5 days and I sure felt it! Another hot one today.
(at least I have my firewood put up for the winter(g))
