Freezing Temps & How the Greenhouse Is Doing
While nowhere near record breaking, this morning’s low put the greenhouse to the test.
- outside low: 12°F (-11°C)
- inside the goat barn: 22°F (-5.5°C)
- inside the greenhouse: 25°F (-4°C)
The result was freeze damage to my warm weather plants: cherry tomato, green peppers, and potatoes. None of this is a surprise, of course. What has been a surprise is that previously, everything survived an outdoor low of 20°F (-6.6°C).
At this point, the only heat the greenhouse gets is residual from the house. It has three glass window walls with the fourth wall being the exterior wall of my sewing room. I don’t know how much this actually helps, but I suspect it’s better than if the greenhouse was freestanding with four glass walls.
So there’s my baseline. Hopefully, we’ll be able to increase the survival odds with some other ideas.
