It is beautiful! Would you mind sharing with us the cost of building this greenhouse? We would love to have one in my back yard

Thanks so much. The cost can vary so greatly based on size and all the options. I highly recommend checking out Wisconsin Greenhouse Company. They have pricing there on the website as well as inspiration etc. Good luck! Please share with me what you decide to do!!

As Dawn said, the cost can vary tremendously according to size and features you choose. I nearly went ahead last year with a BC Greenhouse but didn’t mainly because of my small urban property (and my age -realistically). A smaller basic model (Parkside 8x10), aluminum rather stone base, on a concrete pad (concrete floor), unheated - would have been around $20k🇨🇦, including a contractor to prepare the site and do the installation. The people at BC Greenhouses were absolutely amazing to deal with - extremely helpful and patient. I heard about them from KZitemr Laura at How’s it Growing in New Jersey. She has a white Parkside, my preference would be black.

@@ganymededarling always having second thoughts- should I or shouldn’t I??? If I were 10 years younger, I would definitely go for it. But i have decided that the gorgeous potting bench, substantial in size, that my husband built for me this spring, along with my $70 plastic greenhouse, will suit my needs. Both are just outside my side door and will be accessible all winter. The greenhouse would need to be a bit away from the house and I know I would not go out to it as much as I would like. Closer to 80 than 60 now (how did that happen??!!) and if we sell our house in the next ten years or so, I can see someone tearing it down!!

My greenhouse has been built and I am looking for ceiling fans like you have. Would you be willing to share your source for purchasing them. I also am looking for a stand alone heater that plugs in....Any help would be appreciated. Many thanks.

Oh boy. I’ll have to go digging for that one. I know it was indoor/outdoor fan and I think 60 inches … but that’s all I recall.

The tile is gorgeous, it's too bad you didn't put the electrical boxes outside and just drill a hole through, or the tile on the opposite wall. Really a lovely space top to bottom.

Thank you. All the electric boxes are in the cement wall with the exception of where the electrical box, cooling controls and a set of extra boxes are. That one spot is essentially the control center. 😊

You’ve done a great job and invested a lot of money into it no doubt, but I just can’t envision this as a true greenhouse . 8 to 10 ft tall tomato plants and a bunch of other pots around with the need of high humidity in there, I really doubt that’ll happen . You’ve created a nice spot to entertain family and friends and maybe have a head start with seedlings but a true greenhouse environment would destroy all your wooden furniture and grow mold on any fabrics. I hope my comment didn’t come out rude ; I can truly appreciate the work that has gone into this.

It is multipurpose for certain. I actually grew tomatoes in the greenhouse last year. It was awesome because of the controlled environment they never had any disease issues unlike those outside in my raised gardens. Those tomato plants gave us fresh tomatoes from the greenhouse until the end of December when we typically turn off the heat out there and give it a rest. But yes we also held a lot of fun parties out there during the season too. My vision was multipurpose and this exceeded my expectations. We purchased furniture for the outdoors so I think it will last a long time inside the greenhouse. I appreciate your comments and the nice way you stated your doubt. I had doubts too initially but I do not after growing in here the past few years. The humidity is controlled by the automated window openers. It gets pretty humid in there and my tropical love it but we do try not to let get too humid. 😊

Dawn how did you decide where to put your drain and do you recall by chance the slope you used? All the last little things - I keep looking back at your videos! So helpful! Thx you!

We put it near the potting benches and where the water is. I honestly am not sure of the pitch as the guy who poured on concrete floor did that! But we love it when we need to wash the floor, spray it down and squeegee it out!! I am so glad my video is helping you. Let me know how it all turns out🙏🏼

Hi Dawn, this was so helpful. Your greenhouse is gorgeous. As I mentioned in another post to you, I'm currently working with BC greenhouse on my order. Mine will be quite small compared to yours :) Im looking at a a 10x12, cottage style but it will be oriented as yours is with the double front doors. Can you share where you ended up getting your shade cloths? I think I saw them in another video? Also they're encouraging me to get the exhaust package but wondering if I cant do ceiling fans instead (tho with just 12' doubt I can do 2 and was still hoping to do some lighting in middle). Also did you go with the 6 mm solid glass vs. 3mm? If so, mostly for aesthetics or heat retention? Any thoughts much appreciated. Thx you.. Love your vlogs!
@SeasonalDesignsbyDawn
Жыл бұрын
Thank you so much! Yes, we did 6 mm glass for heat retention. We did not do an exhaust fan but you can see. We have the two fans right below the windows at the top which automatically open and close at certain temperatures. The fans are large, and can either push air down or pull air up. The shade curtains we had made. My husband rigged up a way to hang them, which I thought was ingenious! We bought an expensive cotton poly mix fabric and just had six shades or curtains made. I still need to get a video out on that and I should really get working on it. Lol, it’s just been so busy lately.
