Ok so hopefully this thread will go from start to finish of the building process...here is what I got so far...Area is going to be 30X20ft, in my back yard, the walls will be constructed out of old windows that I'm in the process of scavanging at the moment, the roof is going to be plastic film (hopefully insulated, double or tripple layer ,if anybody know of any please, let me know) stretched over 3/4 PVC hoops that run over a leghnth long center beam and attach to the walls...the north side of the greenhouse is going to be an insulated wall with the dark insulated room/shed behind it...also the stove, my heat source is going in the dark room since its on the north side.Since the ground is not leveled I'm going to have to build it off of posts and adjust the walls to the ground...all the beams will be preassure treated in sonar tubes, (please advise on size and leighnth , the hight I guess will vary with the hight of the walls, please advise on the depth since there is quiet a bit of frost here douring winter...)...I guess alot of the wall hight is going to depend on the majority of window sizes availible....And the size of the north (dark) room is going to depend on how much of the materials I can skavange...(I'll explain later)...here are som pics ...I'm gonna go sketch it out...Thanx in advance for all the help!(especially all the carpenters and farmers out there...electricians also ,but thats later)

Not the prettiest in the world but it looks like you made it work and for pretty damn cheap. Good job, mate! Glad to see that you saw it thru even though it appeared no one was watching. Do it for yourself I say!!!
