Ever see how the Chinese do greenhouses? They do the same as you with the double layer except the second layer is 6' above the first layer and there is a roll top desk sort of contraption at the top that rolls down every night in between the two layers made of something similar to concrete blankets to keep the heat from the day from disappating away at night. Their tunnels are only 5/8ths of a semi circle instead of a full 50% semi circle. The opaque plastic allowing sun to come in faces south while the north facing mass wall is made from sedgehammered earth and tires in a brick or adobe style matrix. It keeps the cold out. But before they even build the greenhouse, they dig 12' down on the footprint of the growing area and insulate everything except where the roots will be and then fill first with perferated drain tile then #3 stone and sand. On top of that goes a layer of logs that were either misshaped or discard like stumps before compost and soil amendments finished the plot. One end of the perferated drain tile sucks air from the very top of the greenhouse whereas the other air that blows into the green house is installed near the ground. It works well that system. Frostless nights when its -50. Ah well if you've ever witnessed a chinese contractor replacing vinyl siding on a four story house in a Chicago neighborhood... I shit you not there were 150 of them on the site for a day. They had everything tore off, re wrapped, windows trimmed out and re sided in one day. There was a crew of 30 that came and cleared all the debris and were gone by lunch the second day. So, I guess when the manpower and rescources are available...you can get a whole lot accomplished. 🙄😁😊😂

Giving that kid such a tongue twister was not fair. She couldn't have knit for something else? lol Nicely done video, some really good comments on it, too. I also want to do hotbeds, but not 100% convinced yet they're worth al the work...especially if I lose my compost-fuel source.

Hello, just watch your video . Thank you for this video. It is such a great idea. Could you please direct me to the name and supplier of the plastic enclosure cover. Does it come with space between or are they an individul sheet on top of each other? Also, please direct me to the air blow unit you used to keep air space beetween plastic sheets. Thank you

Intrigued by the air blower and the way it inflates the two pieces of plastic, obviously expanding and creating a air barrier or insulation area to keep the warm in and the cold out, but does it not over-inflate at times? or do you have an escape or release valve to prevent over inflation of the plastic. Looks fairly small so maybe it doesn't reach that kind of inflation and the air simply dissipates through the seams or something, great video and enjoyed how you have set it up and would love to learn more, if you can spare a few minutes.

I'm sure there are many tiny air escapes throughout allowing an even release of the air with sufficient pressure. This is how bounce houses work with the same type of blowers.

Having the blower in the top is a bad idea, it will move all the hottest air into the layer between the plastic instead of keeping it inside!

I'm curious to know if there should be caution taken when entering and exiting a greenhouse during winter season; would the moisture in the air inside the greenhouse condense to liquid in your lungs from the dramatic change in temperature when exiting?

The scientist in me says: let's see an LED indoor/outdoor temperature gauge so we aren't taking the temp readings on faith. The engineer in me says: let's see a a four season indoor/outdoor temperature data log so we can view the range of daily temps each day over time. The physicist in me says: the r-value of air gapped plastic sheeting can't be very high. That greenhouse must cool down fast after sundown and drop below freezing well before dawn - unless there's some supplemental heating system at work.
